#114 FRANK SINATRA (...Has a Cold)!

from And Introducing Hosted by And Introducing Podcast

And introducing…King of the hill…A#1……KING OF THE HILL: it’s Frank Sinatra! Yes we’re ring-a-ding-dinging in the New Year with one of the greatest recording artists of all time AND one of the greatest pieces of Words About Music of all time in one go. We’re covering Ol’ Blue Eyes from Gay Talese’s celebrated, wildly influential 1966 profile for Esquire magazine, “Frank Sinatra Has A Cold.” Looking at Sinatra’s whole life, work and cultural impact through three pivotal months in ‘65-’66, Talese’s profile sheds light on a man seemingly unstuck from time and place by his massive celebrity. And, it’s very funny.
