Awww, thanks!
You really should hear my Basset Hound, Alice, 'singing' along with me-or maybe not!

Thank you for that video. I had forgotten about it. I bought "A Man and His Music + Ella + Jobim" video at Media Play several years ago for my dad.
They are all my favorites.
Of course, Mr. Como had a way with the tunes, too.

I don't know the best but I would have to rank the Disco version he did of "Night and Day" among his worst.

FYI
This syndicated radio show (on in Houston on 790AM KBME Friday 6:30PM-8:30PM) is good. It offers different records of Frank's songs throughout his career.
According to the website, there are even links to the stations that stream the program.

If you think that the disco version of "Night And Day", or even the disco version of "All Or Nothing At All" (both of which Sinatra recorded in 1977, under some bad advice) for Reprise was bad; you've never heard a song that Mitch Miller (who was Columbia's A&R man at the time) REQUIRED Francis to sing in 1952..a duet with Dagmar, (a "buxom" comedianne) called "Mama Will Bark".
This recording was so humiliating, that Sinatra never talked with Mitch Miller again, and left Columbia. All to the good, because a year later, Francis was under contract to Capital, working with Nelson Riddle, and the rest is history.

What the hell, no "That's Life"?
Far be it from me to forget "That's Life", only a brute could do such a thing. I'm way
ahead of ya...

...REQUIRED Francis to sing in 1952..a duet with Dagmar, (a "buxom" comedianne) called "Mama Will Bark". Oh I've heard it on the radio, I just tried to put those memories out of my mind.
I know someone who took his Frank Sinatra boxed sets and compiled the discs as "Frank Sinatra - The What The Hell Was I Thinking Years".

I agree with "That's Life" and several others but you forgot "Witchcraft". And one called "I Believe in You"
and please, if you do Strangers in the Night, leave out the dooby-dooby-doo. It's been dooby-dooby-done already.
