Record Albums-A Classic Experience
If you’re a collector then anything vintage is what you think of when you think of “classic” antiques. All you really need to be called classic vinyl is to merely be an LP because recording companies no longer make vinyl like they used to. In this digital age, all recorded content is becoming digital. However, before there was a CD or MP3 there was vinyl. And before there was a Lady Gaga there was the chairman of the board himself, Frank Sinatra. Any significant collector of popular music will surely have some Frank Sinatra vinyl in their library.
It’s hard to imagine what kind of impact a singer can have before the age of MTV or YouTube.
All it took was Frank Sinatra to arrive for a gig to generate fan thrills. His female followers were called “bobby-soxers” and they followed him around the world. Around the 40’s, Sinatra showed up on radio shows crooning alongside stars like Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, Jack Benny, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis.
Towards the end of the 40’s, some of the sparkle on Frank’s career began to fade, but he came back with clout thanks to a star part in the movies that had nothing to do with singing. After an intense lobbying campaign, Frank was hired to play a supporting part in From Here to Eternity. After earning an Oscar for the part, Frank’s singing career took off once again.
The year was 1953 when Old Blue Eyes signed with company Capitol Records and proceeded to record some of the most popular classic vinyl records of all time. For these concept albums, Frank teamed up with famed arrangers Nelson Riddle, Gordon Jenkins and Billy May.
Among the popular records in this Frank Sinatra vinyl collection are Swing Easy (1954), In the Wee Small Hours (1955), Songs For Swingin’ Lovers (1956) and the very popular Come Fly With Me (1957). All of these albums were chart-topping successes for Sinatra.
After several years recording with Capitol Records, Frank started up his own label, Reprise Records. His first effort, Ring-A-Ding-Ding (1961), was an instant classic. The much beloved Rat Rack began at this same time. Along with Frank there was Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Joey Bishop and Peter Lawford. The Rat Pack played at packed performances in Las Vegas, Chicago and New York. Some of these one-of-a-kind concerts were recorded for everyone such as Sinatra at the Sands. Pretty much anything with the Rat Pack is considered a very cool collectible.
There are not many recording artists who can make the declaration of having victories in numerous decades from Billboard album sales, to television specials to feature film box office champs.
Frank Sinatra is such a star and is revered this very day by anyone who enjoys classic pop music.
