Frank Sinatra sings Johnny Mercer's LAURA on SONGS BY SINATRA CBS Live Radio Broadcast May 28, 1947

Frank Sinatra shows why he was known as "The Voice" as he delivers a beautiful rendition of LAURA on the Songs By Sinatra CBS radio show. Broadcast on May 28, 1947. Music by David Raskin and lyrics by Johnny Mercer. Likely the first time it has been heard since the original broadcast.
Recorded directly from the original CBS transcription disc from the Ric Ross Frank Sinatra Collection.

So beautiful. This nostalgic feeling will last the rest of the day even though I was born 20 years after this was recorded.

Beautiful. I believe that this was one of Frank's favorite songs.

Astonishing. "The Voice" at his absolute finest, not to mention that mesmerizing arrangement by Axel!

Iconic early Blue Eyes.. already a grandmaster interpreter of Tin Pan Alley ballad classics ( or early gems about to become instant classics) Already leaps and bounds ahead of capturing the romantic rapture nerve of American young female unrequited yearnings..
