Frank's 104th







Hey there cutes, put on your Basie boots!  Or if you choose, sit miserably in the corner and listen to "Watertown." Either way, it's Frankie's 104th. Drink some Jack and go smack somebody.

And get a load of this. A personal fave.

Not as good as The Chambers Brothers...
Seriously, great tune. Now about that Jack.

That is pretty damn good and I've shared it onwards. Nice one!

I'm sure you'll recall some years ago when Rolling Stone published their list of the 100 Greatest Singers and Frank and Ella didn't even make the cut. An absolutely incomprehensible ommision that still perplexes me to this day.

I hope he didn't rough up Antonio Carlos Jobim.

I'm not a fan of Frank as a man, but in this case she has enough class to carry the both of them.
Two of the greatest singers of recorded history.
Wouldn't be the first or last time RS got it wrong.

Not sure I had ever heard Frank sing so loud. And it was great to see later day Ella.
