- I didn't touch the audio quality since I didn't want to compress or make it sound wonky. Made a few tweaks to overall sharpness and fidelity to try to make the visuals crisp and pop.

Young Sinatra's had the smoothest and sweetest male voice of all time.
YES
What a talented young man I’m sure he’ll be big one day
U THINK???
@@pierrerochon7271 perhaps.
Simple there is nobody better than Sinatra. He was called the voice back then.
No one does Stardust quite like Frank not even Bing, I love this video it's been on YT for years doing the rounds glad someone's remastered it I just love the way the conductor goes mad at the beginning then settles the orchestra down for Sinatra to come on to perform his magic.
I'm forever grateful to Frank's Music it changed my life when I was 17 back in 1998, I woke up one morning with a song playing in my mind New York New York I asked my mum who sung it and she said "oh that's Frank Sinatra my love" and that started a great passion for old blue eyes and that great era of music, I love anything to do with the late 30s and especially the 1940s, I still listen to sinatra quite regularly and explored other great artists and bands of that time, Frank, Bing, Glen Miller are my absolute favourite I love listening to them, Sinatra and Bing were not just excellent singers but very fine actors as well I thoroughly enjoys thier films.
I love Frank but I think Nat does the best version.
Nat Cole King is far better
i'd argue johnny mathis and nat king cole did it better
@@Ayvaliklis im kinda partial to the billy ward version
young frank's voice was smooth as silk
I've always loved this video and the fact you remastered it ily
❤
Sinatra had no formal voice training just his natural talent and experience.
Thought that too until I researched he had singing lessons and instruction from a former opera singer named John Quinlan in the 1930s. He helped him develop his style and technique, but also assisted in helping him with his pronunciation and diction to be clear while singing to try to override his Jersey accent as much as possible. They also cowrote a singing instructional short guidebook together titled "Tips On Popular Singing" which was published in 1941.
I stand corrected and should have done the research...got distracted by his natural unforced delivery.....should have realized it reflects training. He was also a good actor and apparently was not trained in acting???@@TheSinatraCollection
@@jamesbean7560 Doing research I couldn't find anything that specified about him having any acting lessons or background. It's safe to assume he had some form of training while first starting out, but as far as what I could find and gather he delivered what he found to be his natural acting capabilities that went well with the scene. Something else that I recall specifically is he was generally a method actor. For his role in "The Man with the Golden Arm" from 1955, he went and studied actual drug addicts in rehab going through withdraws to sell the delivery on his role for that film.
Another gem is Frank and Shirley Jones singing If I Loved you from Carousel. Check it out!
Such a beautiful, soulful man ❤
El más grande!!!
Well . . . it's an historic chant now. People were so creative back then. Thanks for posting in such high quality.
You’re welcome.
This is amazing!! I love this song so much and rly appreciate the effort you put into your videos! Is there any possible way you would be able to do a colourised version of this?
Much appreciated for the kind words! I would love to do a colorized version and redo a lot of my previous videos as I've gotten remarkably better at doing them. So once I get a way when I can get money from either donations or UA-cam itself then I'll gladly put the rest into color.
According to some, the Hit Parade radio show was how Frank Sinatra's career was launched. Would this "Stardust" recording be the first of his performances?
That's a great question. As far as his career was concerned, it was going well in terms of being known as that guy accompanied with a band. This radio show was one of the first ways his solo career got kickstarted, but didn't officially take off until a talent agent by the name of Emanuel "Manie" Sacks got him signed with Columbia, and the rest was history. You are indeed right as this is a recording of one his first performances as it was a promotional advertisement for Lucky Strike Cigarettes.
I don't have 100% of all the specific information, but I have the general information and I'm sure you can find someone who is more well informed than me and get every detail.
To TheSinatraCollection, the conductor, Mark Warnow, was my grandfather. His brother, Raymond Scott, ( Harry Warnow) was my granduncle. Do you have any more videos showing Sinatra with Mark Warnow from "Your Hit Parade"?
Unfortunately I do not have nor know of any other video sequences of Frank and Mark Warnow together. I do however have some officially unreleased tunes and compositions of them together doing the show in an audio format. If that interests you let me know.
Is this before or after the Paramount Theater where they went crazy. He would have just left Dorsey right?
This is pre paramount, post Dorsey. I don’t have the exact date for this footage but from what I have documented and what I’ve seen amongst historians and enthusiasts is this is dated February 1943.
who are the girls? McGuire Sisters +one? Gene Kelly's verson may be iconic and more expressive, but Frank here has the better quality vocal tone.
Music used to sound very organic. Shamelessness is not a superpower, please feel better about yourselves, i see too many rediculous people becoming famous just on the sheer principles of how messed up they are 😢
If Frank hadn’t smoked like a chimney, drank like a fish, ran around and took better care of his overall health he could have kept that velvet voice he had in 1943.
singing eventually became less important to him than partying. Also, that Las Vegas lifestyle can make you jaded - his voice and temperment acquired a harsh cavalier edge..
"Yes, Lucky Strike means fine tobacco!" 🤣
Grown ass man here sheddin tears
Nothing wrong with shedding tears to his beautiful voice.
I want to show this movie to the Japanese who were at war at the time.
Who would have thought that Japan could win against America, which had this kind of entertainment when even cigarettes were being rationed?
「欲しがりません勝つまでは」
「贅沢は敵だ」
と騒いで反米意識を高めていた当時の日本人にこの映像を見せてあげたい
This was another lovely performance so thank you for linking it for me. Are you sure that it was live though? He had no microphone so the orchestra would have drowned out his voice. Regardless, it was highly enjoyable.
If it wasn't I'd be very surprised, because if you pay attention to his mouth, every single phrase, breath, and diction was present. That in turn would require a lot of trial and error to be properly lip synched like that.
Yeah it’s very strange, it probably isn’t lip synced but the thought did occur to me.
Probably a lot of mic play between camera switches, Frank was never one to lip synch

OMG
MORE! if you can
I'll try my best to!
@@TheSinatraCollection You legend!
Beautiful
Forever for always Frank!
The boy frank Sinatra
0:43- KENNY DELMAR: "Time for a 'Lucky Strike EXTRA'! Frank Sinatra, the Hit Paraders and Mark Warnow's 'Lucky Strike' orchestra offer another memorable rendition of that popular romantic ballad---- *'STARDUST'!"*
EVER HEAR STARDUST SUNG BY NAT KING COLE???
YEP- DOUBLE YEP- I love Frank- but Nat sings it better
Sinatra recorded Stardust again in 1962 [Sinatra & Strings, with Don Costa], a marvellous rendition in which he sings only the introduction, skipping the main theme (and will all due respect to Nat Cole, it is far, far superior...)
