- Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth Interview with Frank Sinatra Expert, Charles Pignone, Senior VP, Frank Sinatra Enterprises
About Harvey's guests:
Today’s guest, Charles Pignone, is a producer and author who is instrumental in preserving, perpetuating and honouring the legacy of the most popular and beloved vocalist and entertainer of all time, Frank Sinatra.
His close association with the Sinatra family, which has been ongoing for over 40 years, began in 1984, when at the age of 18, he became the President of the Sinatra Society of America. That position allowed him to get to know Frank Sinatra and his family, and evolved into a full time job, culminating in his current position as senior vice president of Frank Sinatra Enterprises.
He’s produced several books about Sinatra, starting with “The Sinatra Treasures: Intimate Photos, Mementos, and Music from the Sinatra Family Collection”, which is filled with never-before-seen photos, letters and mementos from the Sinatra family archives. Then, in 2007 he released “Frank Sinatra: The Family Album”, which chronicles the private life of the iconic star, filled with rare photos, and firsthand recollections and stories from his family and close friends.
And then in 2015, to commemorate Sinatra’s 100th birthday, our guest, in conjunction with Sinatra’s 3 children, released a book entitled, “Sinatra 100”, which is an intimate and dramatic visual portrait of Frank Sinatra, revealing many of the previously unseen moments in a remarkable life. Our guest also wrote the beautiful commemorative programs for the 2 groundbreaking multi-media concert productions - the first one in 2003 at Radio City Music Hall entitled, “Sinatra: His Voice, His World, His Way”, and the second one in 2006, “Sinatra At the London Palladium”.
He produced a wonderful documentary called “The Rat Pack Captured”, as well as the 2011 TV Special, “Sinatra Sings”. And he was an executive producer on the excellent 2015 miniseries, “Sinatra: All or Nothing at All”.
He’s produced dozens of albums and box sets including some of my favourites, “Frank Sinatra: Nothing But The Best”, “Frank Sinatra: Vegas” and “The Rat Pack Live and Swingin’: The Ultimate Rat Pack Collection”.
And if all of that weren’t enough, our guest also produced a fascinating book entitled, “The Copa: Jules Podell and the Hottest Club North of Havana”, which is a beautifully illustrated history and a mesmerizing look behind the scenes at the legendary Copacabana nightclub in New York.

so glad he mentioned Al Viola and the Page Cavanaugh trio they were fantastic!
Yes they were terrific.
As a Sinatra fan like so many others, Charles has about the best job that I can imagine. What a lucky guy. He also seems like a really nice gentleman, too.
He is an absolute sweetheart. And has become a very dear friend. Thank you so much for watching
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 My pleasure, sir. Thanks for sharing the interview. I'll send it to my other friends who are Sinatra fans, too. I look forward to watching more of your content. I see you also interviewed the beautiful Tina Sinatra. I still have a crush on her. Wishing you all the best.
@karlhungus5554 I greatly appreciate your support by spreading the word about our show. Thank you so much
Another great interview, Harvey. Thanks.
I’m a huge Sinatra fan. Have been since I was 12 years old.
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed this interview with Charlie, who has become a dear friend
Just discovered a few live bootlegs for some reason haven't heard yet so I've got them lined up and excited to hear the different quality in his voice and tweaks he does to some notes!.. (Oakland 68) (Milan 62)
That’s amazing!
Im sure this was already on few weeks ago. It says it just came up 6 hours ago ?!?!?! I'm confused. :-)
It’s the same interview but we had to replace a graphic at the request of Sinatra Enterprises. Sorry for the confusion.
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980ok, thanks for letting me know. Love your interviews.
Wow, they are going strong to keep his name alive
I love when he kept saying to you
You did your homework lol
Great interview
Thank you so much Joann. I must confess that I love it when my guests appreciate my thorough research.
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 absolutely, you your job perfectly
After every interview they call a friend
Amazing, you do your homework and it shows
And your a perfect gentleman and you dress beautifully
Joann you are so very kind to me, and I appreciate you so much. THANK YOU.
Nice job you have great respect for the artists of yesterday
Thank you. I have great respect for all artists, and great love for those who grace our show with their presence.
Frank Sinatra jr was a fairly cold and horrid person. Watch his today show interview that Charles and Frank jr had with Kathie Lee and hoda. It’s cringeworthy and Frankie jr is really mean rude. A really miserable human being surly rude and nasty for no damn reason
Didn’t know that. I’ll watch it on UA-cam
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 he had prostate cancer and died month later so in his defense he had reason to be angry
@MalEvansUSA that is so sad. He also had to live in the shadow of a superstar, while wanting to be a vocalist himself.
I had the pleasure of meeting Frank Jr. in the 90’s and he was very kind and intelligent. We chatted quite a long time about a variety of subjects and he was just wonderful.
@dannyryan9246 you were so fortunate to meet him.
