- Here, from my collection of personally recorded videos, is the full May 13, 1988 Larry King interview (It says March 13 on the screen in error) with Ol' Blue Eyes himself, the one and only Frank Sinatra as repeated on December 26, 1997 in honor of Frank's then recent 82nd birthday. As Sinatra rarely gave interviews, this one turned out to be his final major one. Enjoy!

I was 21 when I did his home alarm in 1980 in Holmbly Hills while working for Westec Security. I told him he was the greatest singer I had ever heard and he laughed because I was so young. Took us 2 weeks to finish his system and I spoke to him many times in that 2 weeks. When we finished he asked me to come back that weekend because he wanted to show me some things. He couldn't get over a kid knowing so much about him I guess. I went back the following Saturday morning shaking as i entered his home. He spent 4 hours showing me memorabilia from his entire career. I got there about 10am and we finished about 2. Then he asked if I was hungry and if I wanted to go to lunch with him. His son drove and we went to La Dolce Vita, his favorite place.Signed a napkin for my dad. Best fucking day in my life.
Dutcher, what a time you must have had. He was the greatest and not just at singing. Can you imagine what his favorite women must have enjoyed?
OMG, that's a once in a life time miracle
Wow
Wow. Good things came to you for doing a good job. It's the same thing Sinatra stood for .
You lucky bastard!!! Awesome experience, thank you for sharing.
I am a black man. What this wonderful human being did for civil rights is so under reported and trivialized. Without Frank Sinatra refusing to perform in places that did not admit Sammy Davis jr. ( a negro entertainer) to stay in white hotels. Frank in my opinion was an abolitionist in his own right. God bless you Mr. Sinatra. I love who you were and what you stood for. R.I.P my brother. You are gone, but NEVER Forgotten.
So glad you brought this up. Frank was not perfect, far from it, but he hated prejudice; it didn't make sense to him. Furthermore, he stood behind his convictions at a time when it was risky to do so. Frank knew he was on the right side of history. Sometimes it takes guts to do the right thing....and Mr. Sinatra had guts.
I was close with John Lewis. We spoke about Frank a few times, with tremendous respect for his contribution to the civil rights movement.
@@boxofmoles4057 Lucky you! I met Mr. Lewis once at Ragan National. I was HONORED to shake his hand. My only regret is that I did not have my cell, so I didn't get a pic. Mr. Lewis was a wonderful soul... I just know he's up there getting into "good trouble."
A
Agreed 👍
This is why I love the internet, you can spend hours listening to interesting people you would never have seen
Yep, and a bunch of nobodies can make anonymous comments against these people and make themselves feel good.
He was more than an entertainer. He did so much for people who needed help than people will ever know.
"You only live once, and the way I live, once is enough."
- Frank Sinatra
Greatest guy ever💋
@@annegilderson6909 Karl is a great guy, indeed.
When I play Frank Sinatra’s Music in my classroom my teenage students adore it. The man is timeless.
Artist Painter Was a movie ever made about him.?
I wish i went to school there lmao.
Tony Diamond School there?
Assuming its school, But after reading her name maybe its an art classroom. Never gave it much thought.
Tony Diamond Yes I see that's a great idea.
He's now Interviewing the people in heaven. RIP
@THISIS THEGIRL why hell
On his 80 birthday he spent the morning with his family and a few close friends, rested up a bit in the afternoon...he had dinner around 8 that evening and had one guest over to eat dinner with him..Bob Dylan..he was a man who loved the "lyric"
Sinatra shut down a European tour, flew back stateside from Paris and moved Joe Louis to the best private hospital in Las Vegas when he found out that Joe Louis was broke and about to be homeless and couldn't afford a public hospital. Nobody else stepped up to save Joe Louis' life but Sinatra, drop of a hat, took care of business. RIP, Frank Sinatra and Joe Louis.
Agreed! Francis also paid for Bela Lugosi's funeral, and took care of Sammy Davis when he was broke, Frank was the type of friend any man would have loved to have, always came up in the clutch and back his friends up.
Frank Sinatra always took care of the people that he loved, and admired. God bless Mr. Frank Sinatra may you rest in peace. 👼 🙏
glad he helped people out. i hope people like Johnny Carson, Ed McMahon and Milton Berle George Vessel Joey Bishop Don Rickles Bob Hope helped people out with all of their riches. I'm not so sure the list above would do what Frank did....why not spend all of your money before you die. JC sent about 200 Mil to charities
N
@@harpoon_bakery162 I've read Johnny paid for funerals and sent some widows big checks to help
Frank was the last to go, Sammy had passed, Dean had passed.... He lived the life of 100 men...in his life time...Whatever is said about Mr. Sinatra...he was a generous and giving man..many time he helped out lots of people without them knowing it was Frank who bailed them out financially. He was tough, cool, talented and a true artist. RIP Sir. Respect.
Frank would have loved you. He loved people who were gullible enough to believe that he was a good man. It was an act to cover up his many, many shortcomings.
@@vcoaster you seem like the kind of person who focuses only on the shortcomings of people
It’s a shame that entertainers of his caliber no longer exist
um, I guess you haven't heard of bad bunny?
Mexico and Latin America have had incredible musicians like JUAN GABRIEL, LOUIS MIGEL, and many others.
The society and the times made him. It was a relationship of many factors. A miracle as we all see. Convenience and complacency has not helped keep the magic happening.
Judging from the comments, some people have a very negative impression of Frank Sinatra. I thought that Larry King did a masterful job of putting Frank at ease and bringing out his best qualities. Sinatra showed honesty, humility and civility throughout the interview. It's really a shame that Martin Scorsese's plan for a Sinatra film biography will probably never be made. Though he was not a perfect man, Frank Sinatra lived a fascinating life and was a true American icon.
Leo Mallard
Scorsese might make that movie yet.
Sow AG I hope that it's true, but I recently saw Martin Scorsese at the Oscars, and at 77-years old, he looked very frail and unhealthy. I'm afraid that he spent all of his remaining energy on making the 3 1/2 hour movie, "The Irishman."
Leo Mallard
he could make one alright.
But he may have lost the desire to make a Sinatra movie.
Frank was a mobster ,bully that hated not to have his way
Fucking family refuses, marty was trying to make from the 80s, but he admitted it's too late by now.
This man lived and experienced things most entertainers will never experience. He also would not perform in Vegas until Sammy Davis Jr was allowed to stay in the Casino Hotel. He was truly an “American Icon”
Your comment is partly true. He experienced more than almost any other performer, but he was often a despicable human. PS, He made fun of Sammy's "blackness" as part of his comedy routine every night. He treated Sammy like a third class citizen. Sammy was just a prop to Frank, so I wouldn't make him out to be some great civil rights leader.
@@vcoaster In the old days, thank God for them everyone was a good sport.we laughed at each other, made fun of one another and life was STILL worth living!We were much more relaxed back then,and didn't take ourselves too seriously!
@@estevennurkin5183 it's been awhile. Seems you found God and speak nicer🤔🤣
Frank seems really sad during this interview. I see a lot of sadness in his eyes. This man really was an American icon.
I think it comes with knowing all the stuff he probably knew in the entertainment industry.
non Ralph , il ne fut pas qu'une icône américaine , il fut une icône MONDIALE.........et c'est bien mieux encore !!!
Je n'aime pas cet abandon de Dean Martin . ça a tout gâché !!!!
Frank Sinatra was a fighter, I think Dean Martin was not that strong anymore, after loosing His son....... May they Rest in Peace, and I wish all Here blessings. 🇩🇪🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
@@jacquesdeghorain3162 and rr
There will NEVER be a Chairman of the Board ever again…. One of a kind!!!!
Ditto, ditto ditto
Frank was the most sincere down-to-earth person in the industry. He once got out of his limo at the airport and gave money to several people who looked like they were in need. They thanked him- but did not know who he was
Link?
So many hateful comments on here. He was what he was...like him or not. He was an entertainer.
la haine se propage partout , sur la toile comme ailleurs.........C'est très moche , mais ça a un bon côté ! Au moins , grâce à ces commentaires empoisonnés , nous savons de qui nous ne devons jamais nous approcher . Ce n'est pas si mal , après tout . Frank lui , s'en fout . IL en a vu d'autres........hahahahaha !!!!
I could sit and listen to Frank talk for hours thanks for posting
Gary Eaton v
Gary Eaton This is so unfair Howard ,, ex boyfriend who promised to take me to see Frank Sinatra at the Albert Hall in London and even though I was paying for my own ticket you let me down because it cost £60.00 each . I am 30 yrs younger than Frank but l still love him to bits .
micselaneous wickedwitch mp
+ miscellaneous wicked witch That's a dirty lie! And what about that time he payed for getting your dirty underwear washed professionally because you couldn't get those stains out which were so embarrassing!
I agree!! Notice how Larry is sweating
May you rest in peace, Frank
I am still listening to your great music.
The man was a legend and the first King before Elvis. I love love love his voice, enjoyed his movies, but admire him most for his grit and determination to crawl back from where he was in 1949/50. That took guts and he deserves every accolade he got. RIP Frank and thank you for your contribution to the cultural milaeu of the 20th century, it wouldn't have been the same without you. You definitely did it your way.
I am so thankful I got to see him live in Vegas. It was in the late 80s. My girlfriend at the time got tickets as a surprise. We drove from CA. We were in our late 20s but both were huge fans. It was first come-first served random seating so I folded a fifty dollar bill and palmed it in the hand of the guy seating us. He sat us at a table right down front. I could put my elbow on the stage. They were the best seats in the house and I didn't know if a fifty would be enough, but it was. That was a fairly good tip in the late 80s.
He put on such a great show. It's a memory I cherish.
Joe Blow thats a cool ass story good for you! I wish he was alive today and performing. But then again, who doesnt!
lucky you, I wish I met him
he's so talented
There will never be another man to take his place. I loved him, so entertaining in every medium.
Many years ago in 1977 as a young girl I got on an elevator with Frank Sinatra. Iwasthisclose to him. I was in awe. He smiled back and said hello and then I slid down the wall.
I would have fainted!!!!!
Poor thing!!!! Yes, I would have fainted!!!!!!
Cute!
1st singer the girls went crazy over!!!!!
I imagine Sinatra and his generation are "rolling over in their graves" to see our country today and it's lack of a positive direction. They were great people that grew up the hard way, most served their country in war, got out and with great integrity and character from those struggles went on to achieve milestones. I think they were lucky to live during a time of amazing growth in our country. Sinatra was looked up to, as an example. Rags to riches.
He’s so larger than life. I saw him up close before the Muhammad Ali - Ken Norton fight in Yankee Stadium in 1976 and I was stunned by his presence.
Sammy davis jr.'s death hurt him a lot But when Dean Martin died frank was finished. He adored Dino
Frankie was my mother's childhood friend in the 1920s and 30s. He lived with his grandmother on the 3rd floor in the tenement house on Bloomfield Street in Hoboken.
From Quincy Jones's lips Frank Sinatra help open doors for black Jazz guys on the mainstream, when certain clubs would not have black people play in their establishment Sinatra wouldn't have it, for that I respect him.
John HENDRICKS I feel the same. The talent was definitely there, but there were no opportunities. He helped a great deal.
And enabled them to walk thru front doors of theaters, rather than having to use back doors. Have had so much respect for him since l heard those stories.
allymayful Very true. If Sammy couldn't walk through the front door, Frank refused to play the venue. Vegas guys. He didn't bow down.
God, I loved Frank. They don't make 'em like him anymore.
Mom was a singer in Ithaca, NY and she didn't like Frank. I never could understand that. Thinking about it again, I do remember her personal experience when she met Bing Crosby. Maybe she was playing favorites. She went to the Chanticlear (sp?) nightclub one night and Bing stepped on her gown and tore it. He was the perfect gentleman about it. He gave her his dinner jacket to help her to her room where she changed gowns and offered to pay for the expense of fixing it or replacing it.
I was always a great fan of Frank Sinatra. Still listen to his music. A legend. Will never be forgotten.
les grands artistes ne sont jamais oubliés que par ceux qui n'ont jamais eu grand-chose dans la tête !!!
Probably like mamy of us, i found this Video after watching Netflix documentary. What crushes my heart is the look in Frank eyes - It perfectly reflects his awarness of years that passed. Especially when he says that noone invites him to interviews or movies. I think singing was like a part od his soul and body. Saying goodbye to part of Yourself must be devastating. He and Freddie Mercury are the artists i miss the most. I Hope Frank You have a beautiful audience somewhere. We love Your voice and miss You
What a sweet comment. Thank you.
What documentary
@@MrChadmax2000 type in Frank, it will pop up. I have it on my list to watch this week
@@MrChadmax2000 Sinatra - All or nothing at all. Enjoy!
they don't make them like Frank anymore............ I loved his Jersey attitude.
Im so glad that people of my generation can go back and watch this stuff. Even if the majority won't, I still will.
It's because we are from that Era. It's always nice to be able to remember our better days.
Frank Sinatra was very clever and educated man,
he and Dean forever together and so missed🌹
Natalia Lifatova
lol..he was not an educated man....though he was much much more intelligent then people think
We grew up listening to Sinatra my parents loved him.
Saw Sinatra on his final tour. He absolutely owned the auditorium. Legend!
he used to smoke while he performed
"Dean Martin is a man who doesn't like to work" is hilarious.
That Dean Martin comment was uncalled for and really ignorant
What an absolute gentleman and legend. Well spoken, handsome, talented, he had it all. Thanks for this post.
Always a pleasure to watch a master sit down and talk.
Handsome?
@@johnnyrocker7495 Very handsome and extremely charismatic when younger. He was an old man in this interview!
@@lisadc4681 true but he was never really handsome, now Elvis, that was handsome
@@Hugeroost that's your opinion
@@estevennurkin5183 are you a crazy person?😅
R.I.P. Larry King and Frank Sinatra too. Larry King gave the best interviews! I really enjoyed this interview with Old Blue Eyes! Watched “Larry King Live” for years. And his show “Larry King Now” too. He will be missed.
The height of Sinatra's career was well before my time, but my parents always listened to him when I was growing up and have always been huge Sinatra fans. I wasn't exactly a fan of that style of music as a kid in the 80s and 90s, but now, at 40 years old, I'm a huge fan. It's kind of funny because hearing his music almost makes me nostalgic for an era when I wasn't even alive and never even experienced. I guess it's probably because we're living in such chaotic and depressing times these days.
I sure do miss entertainers like Frank Sinatra. A true class act.
You never knew them to miss them plus with all the footage online you cannot claim to miss them
he was my top fav artist but he wasn’t a class act he used to hit woman and had mobsters around him 24/7 if anything he was a gangster
@@peterjjames2746
I wish you weren't so fucking awkward bud
That era is long gone. Thanks to political correct cream puffs destroying the country
The Best
He did it his way!
OLD SCHOOL! People do not have this kind of principles and conviction anymore. I miss the old days......When people do things differently from how we do things now. Side note, look at Frank's suit....this was recorded back in 1988 and his suit looks like its something that's in style today.
He was one of a kind and there will never be another one like him.
I have always loved Frank Sinatra. God Bless this man always. Authentic.
Frank was a complicated, sometimes troubled and endlessly talented and fascinating man.
rip larry, what a great interviewer
You can tell Larry is truely enjoying this interview.
Sinatra never gave interviews. Getting him on the show was a huge deal.
All the trolls should look in the mirror, if it's not broken first, that is!!!💀
I had the honor to play guitar for him and Dean. I first saw him at 7 years old with John Kennedy and played for him 20 years later for Ronald and Nancy Reagan. This interview is exactly the way he was. Very humble and nice. Dean was constantly drinking and Frank was straight. The women went crazy for Dean and Frank was amused by it all. Dean was exactly the same way off stage as on. Frank would walk very fast and by the time somebody recognized him, he was gone. Frank was a very serious entertainer.
Thanks
Lucky you am 27 and add give anything to bring him back to life and meet him
Frank RIP. People will be listening to your music forever.
I had the great privilege on seeing, Ol'Blue Eyes in person 1982 it was a Great show he's a true legend.
Rip Frank 🕊️
Ahh the good ole days no social distancing
No social media
This is what I loved about Sinatra. He was very candid. Old Blue Eyes. He’s still missed. 😢
He didn't like famous people telling us little people how to think about politics. He was right.
Who cares if he has Mafia connections. Wtf? Who cares. Still far more classy than anyone in the music industry today. By miles.
We all should care. The Mafia WAS involved in the killing and cover up of Marilyn Monroe and very likely JFK.
@@SciFiGirl007 son, America is and was Mafia, the rest was and is “just” crime. And I could say the same about many other countries.
@@SciFiGirl007 Yes but Frank tried to help her. She was going public with things that ultimately got her killed. If only she had listened to Franks advice ??
@@SciFiGirl007 you don’t have any proof that the mafia put a hit out on Marilyn Monroe!
@@SciFiGirl007 brain dead troll
Loved this interview. Frank Sinatra was a fabulous singer, actor and a loyal friend. He will never be forgotten.
A person organizing Mr. Sinatra's clothes after he died gave me one of Frank's ties soon after he died because I said I was a fan. I was changing the locks at his Sunset Blvd. home. Honored to have it. Thank you sweet lady for giving me something to cherish of his.
Jesse Warren wanna sell it?
Frank Sinatra had more class on one finger than anyone in Hollywood today.
Lees706 dam straight
No he didn't, his talent was undeniable but he was crass,rude,and very aggressive!
He was given the finger.
How come old people always say that!? 50 yrs from now, someone will say, justin bieber had more class than Windows 60 and Xbox 10,000, lollollol!!!💝
How old was he when he married Mia Farrow? And how old was Mia then? Not very classy.
I can't think of another major music star who had that successful and IMPORTANT a film career. Sinatra was one of a kind.
Truly love this video. I miss Frank. I always think of my parents when I hear his songs. I love his songs. Will never, ever grow tired of Frank.
Good God, he was a great entertainer. He is missed.
Frank Sinatra was in a class by himself as a performer and artist.
there will never be another Frank Sinatra in American history & we’re lucky we had him as long as we did. I always imagine the final hospital visit from Rickles he got must’ve been a bittersweet moment for both men, as Frank would expire soon after, but we know Rickles didn’t let a little thing like ‘a great friend dying’ get in the way of ripping him a fresh one. that meeting was one of Norm Macdonald’s favorite celeb stories of his career, so we also know it was epic. Rickles was working with Saget & Norm on ‘Dirty Work’ at that time. RiP Frank, Rickles, Norm & Saget. it blows horses that they’re gone, but it’s a blessing that we have all the art they created & left for us to enjoy…all of them & all of it.
Not just a great singer but a great charitable man and an iconic figure. Frank you were the greatest
Always the best. Loved you, Frankie baby!
thetonyfromconey z
I like Frank Sinatra. Even as a young kid growing up on Chicago's west side on the mid 70's, 80's till this day his very name sounds grand epic. He speaks so grounded, simple and real. I wish I had a strong male figure like Frank in my life to give me guidance and advice. Great man!
Mr. Sinatra's last acting job was on Magnum PI in '87. He was a huge fan of the show and wanted to be on it. Selleck made it happen.
He was a very complex man, he could be incredibly kind and generous but also very mean with an explosive temper. A fascinating individual and he greatest male popular singer of the twentieth century .
Couldn't agree with you more.
When I was a young man I could care less about him and his music, it's funny how time changes us, but now I think he was one hell of a talent/man.
I agree with you I'm 59 years old and I find myself buying old vinyl albums of Frank Sinatra and scouring around eBay and discogs to try to find near mint copies of these beauties. I listen to my Frank Sinatra records late at night so I don't wake up my wife and my kids and I can tell you Frank Sinatra was the greatest singer who ever lived better than Elvis Presley better than anybody. On top of his incredible vocal Talent and his incredible acting Talent he was also an amazing music conductor and anybody who is criticizing Frank Sinatra for being not as good as Elvis are not as good as whoever don't know what they're talking about all they have to do is listen to those old Frank Sinatra Capitol pressings and the answer is there it's undeniable Frank Sinatra had such control of his voice he wasn't a success because of his so cold connections he was a success because he was the best damn singer that God put on this Earth
@@johnodacre3881 Of course he is, much better then Elvis, no comparison. You my friend have a good ear for music are you a professional?
Be blessed
@@estevennurkin5183 how many personalities do you have?
@@SHARON.I Are you crazy? Who the heck are you???
@@estevennurkin5183 the god of hell fire😅
What a great interview. Frank comes across as an erudite, articulate sympathetic person. So wonderful to have seen this interview
True class, doesn't pull any crap, tells it straight. Frank knew he was a worldwide singing sensation. But stayed down to earth as he talks about all of it.
He was the best of the best....I hear him every day in my car. I've been in love with him since I was 15 58yrs ago!!
How in God's name could anyone give thumbs-down to this interview? Sinatra was one of the three or four biggest stars of the electronic age. This was a calm, reflective interview. Maybe the NO's are people who can't sit still for an open discussion. Sad, isn't it?
who were the others?
The soulless Millinials will never get it.
How this world could do with Frank Sinatra now - today's 'stars/singers/musicians' etc just do not come a ywhere near the presence he had !. STILL sadly missed !
@Alan...Thank you. Unfortunately, I'm tongue tied, unable to come up with the right emotion I suffer at the moment at his loss. Respectfully, Alan, it's more than miss. I think, however, with respect to you, I'll settle with mourn!
I LOVE FRANK♥️ , i love this man AND his music
Frank affected a lot of people. Helped so many.
Frank---at this stage-the most unpretentious ,unaffected and modest showbiz performer EVER-and the most natural actor.
Frankie---- No One like him. He had such a command of his audience, holding them in the palm of hands. I know I was one of the Bobby Sockers back in the day of the Paramount Theater. What a voice. Wow wow wow. Never be another voice like his. R.I.P.
Frank owned it.
.
Imagine the damn secrets that was buried with this man. Legend.
Sinatra was civil rights champion. RIP. 🙏🏽
Frank Sinatra was the greatest singer who ever lived. Whenever I play his songs...”Let Me Try Again,” I actually cry. I miss him sooo much. There is nobody who can compare with this great, gorgeous talent. God rest his soul.
Hy joan
Joan L so do I i miss him so much xx
The Man! The Lengend! The Icon!! Frank!!!! He is very Missed
Yes, indeed and one consolation he left us was his music and his movies.
Just remember an ant can move a rubber tree plant!
I was exclusively into rock for many years but I was asked once to copy a stack of albums to tape and that's when listening to one of Sinatra's I stopped and thought damn, have I been missing out on something. Now I've been listening to him and many others I had written off earlier for many years, still like rock but there are other worlds to be totally enjoyed!
I loved listening to this guy when I was a teenager. I was 10 when this interview aired. I loved his big band sound. All the other kids were listening to pop and grunge I was listening to Frank, Ella and Harry Connick Jnr. These people taught me how to sing and really love music. I was a drummer and conga player for years. Love this interview. Rest in Peace Frank. Thank you so much
Best singer God ever created!!!
A truly great voice, and entertainer. Rough around the edges, but was a man who knew what he wanted, what he liked, and wasn't shy about it. He was a large star in a universe of stars in America.
Frank sang "Summer Wind" to me at Desert Inn in Vegas years ago when I sat in front row! I'll NEVER forget it! Who cares about the rest of the BS!
Great song
When this first came out, Frank sounded like and out of touch relic. But now he sounds like an statesman with an admirable work ethic and classical values. In short, he works hard and people's personal life is private..
He calls people who write about people who achieve greatness parasites.
He has a point, despite the metaphor. There is a dignity in expecting private lives. The performance is all the performer owes the world.
Loved and love Frank Sinatra , named my son after him .
A true legend and not star struck .. just a lovely guy
What a wonderful interview. Despite his fame and money, Frank remained humble throughout his life. He secretly donated millions to charity and was utterly loyal to his close friends. Extreamly generous by nature, if a close friend or fellow entertainer was financiallybstruggling, Frank would often pay friends debts or medical bills without their knowledge. A defender of racial equality throughout his life, Frank famously refused to sing in any of the Vegas hotels in the late 1950s/early 1960s, unless his fellow entertainers, who were African Americans, were allowed to enter the casinos or socialise in the hotels. He was without doubt, one of the best, if not the best, singers of the 20th century and a wonderful human being. RIP Mr Sinatra❤️
The man , the legend, Sinatra
Had alot of class!
Sinatra was in a class all his own. Missed but left so much for us all to enjoy.
Larry gave the best interviews. RIP Larry King!
One of a kind. There will never be another like him.
That's it demef, wrote mine about Moon River cause l have all his d.v.d.s it was only on a c.d. rare one cause it's an Andy Williams song,no one like him true saloon singer.....
Sinatra was a hugely talented singer and rightly regarded as one of the best crooners of popular music. He was a capable actor and certainly a lot better than many singers who tried their hand in Hollywood films. Where opinions differ is to identify the best years of his singing career, which of course is subjective. Personally, I think the years from the mid 40’s to the mid 50’s were his best. He was respected in the entertainment world but his edginesss, and sometimes arrogance and bluster didn’t endear him to many people. He found it difficult to take criticism but then I imagine that applies to all of us. However, his stye of singing was unique and he influenced a whole generation of singers. Hall of fame? Yes!
Mr Sinatra, one of the best in singing, acting, an incredible artist. Love him and his wonderful music is timeless !
I seriously don’t get it, why all these people are bashing and bad mouthing Sinatra. Calling him an “asshole” and saying “it’s good he’s dead” when none of you even fucking knew him! Even if Sinatra was a jerk, he is still a greatly beloved entertainer with an awesome voice and lots of talent. It’s sad to see so much people have so much hate for individuals they don’t even know. I wouldn’t be surprised probably jealousy.
il y a toujours eu des tas de connards pour dire du mal des autres......Les écouter ne sert à rien , ce sont des parasites incapables de voir ni d'entendre , ni de comprendre.......des nuls !!!
I had a crush on his daughter Nancy.
My father, an Italian singer of Sinatra's generation, watched this interview in our living room on December 26, 1997, and was positively glued to the TV set. I remember it clearly.
Fascinating man, so much charisma and presence, they don't make stars like this today. He was so articulate in his 80s
A great tribute to Larry King that he could interview Frank Sinatra, who was notoriously private.
God Rest Mr. King's soul, he was a fine interviewer.
Greatest singer, performer all time.
Frank was incredible. I saw him in concert twice...I'm blessed.
