Sinatra truly THE VOICE of the 20th Century. None before could match his talent and probably never will again. Sure, there are many singers out there, and some of them are also great, but Sinatra was a once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon that will never be repeated. That's why it's great that we have all these recordings and videos, because the guy is gone now, but will never be replaced!

They don't make music like this anymore!

I love many of Sinatra's songs. However, Bobby Darin's version of Mach the Knife is superior. Use to think Ella Fitzgeralds version were best, but I think Bobby Darin's is, with Ella a very close second. Even Sinatra said Darin version were the best.

Frank was 68/9 during these sessions, incredible.

How he introduced the band was classic from 4:45 ! Seeing the young George Benson doing his thing made me pause and rewind it again! That was epic!

I watch this from time to time because it's so iconic.

Such a good singer, his timing - you think he's going to miss the cue and hits it right at the last moment and the risk he takes with he pitch of some note and gets away with it, he was was better than most appreciated.

Love Frank! He's the absolute greatest singer that ever recorded songs PERIOD! However, he was not pleased with this vocal rendition. He went to the studio and did another lyrical version of the vocals where he NAILED it. The musical track is exactly the same!

Quite brilliant. What an arrangement. What a singer. What a performer.

I saw Frank Sinatra in concert he was good cheeckie💜⚡😇😇👄🌩️✨🕯️❄️🌧️💜⚡

Brilliant

Damn - this was 1984, way past Frank's heyday and yet he was still kickin' ass! Frank and that gang was really in my parents era and I got them tickets to see him in the early 80s, then I got to see him with my mom in that late 80s. I miss those days so much. Nothing's ever perfect, and I grew up with a clear sense of what's morally and ethically right and fair as opposed to what was wrong. I clearly remember my brothers teasing me because I was always crying ' it's not fair', whenever I saw injustice. My 67yo ass is still outraged by the injustice I am seeing happening now and I would like to say my peace. Shame, damn shame on every single one of you Republicans that has allowed Donald Trump to represent the Republican Party. Shame on you all for allowing him to be a legitimate and viable candidate for people to vote for, after you all saw him throw his VP out to be hung for doing his duty to the Constitution. Shame on you all to continue to support a candidate for President who continues to publicly disrespect every single system of the American government when it doesn't go his way, and then turns around to praise it when it hurts his adversary. It is so glaringly clear that trump is wholly unfit to hold the office of the presidency, and it's up to the leaders in the Republican party to make that call. I can literally hear Nixon screaming up from his grave, 'what the hell is wrong with you guys!' And for the first time, I would agree with him.

Thank you very MUCH! Beautiful song - interesting view! T🙂

I have this vinyl LP I bought not long after it was released in the '80's. I found it in a videotape store (does anyone remember "Blockbuster?" This is good, and it about as good as it gets. I would encourage any of you to rent/buy the CD. It's entitled something like "The making of an album: LA Is My Lady". It goes into detail about how the record was produced, arranged, and conducted with commentaries by Quincy Jones, songwriters the Bergmans, and some of the band members like Ray Brown and Lionel Hampton. 🎺🎶

Good song I love it
