As part of the Sinatra 100th Year, it is only fitting to remember his friend and brother Sammy Davis Junior (today is also Sammy's birthday). You can see why Sinatra described him as a force.
Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Frank Sinatra at the Sands 1960
Pundette has Jerome Kern's The Way You Look Tonight at #5 on her list
Bob Belvedere has Cole Porter's I've Got You Under My Skin at his #3 Sinatra song
Mark Steyn has Cole Porter's You'd Be So Easy To Love at #94
Mark is at #95 with Mack The Knife. Pundette #5 is The Summer Wind. Bob's top Sinatra Album is Songs for Swingin' Lovers and the curious case of Bim Bam Baby
Don’t forget to also keep checking out
