Love is a studio album by Rosemary Clooney, arranged by Nelson Riddle, recorded in 1961 but not released until 1963.
Clooney and Riddle were having an affair at the time of the recording, and this was the second album that Riddle had arranged for Clooney. They recorded Rosie Solves the Swingin' Riddle! in 1960 for RCA Victor Records, and the songs that make up Love were recorded the same year. RCA Victor didn't release Love at the time, and Frank Sinatra bought the master tapes for Love from RCA when he signed Clooney to his record label, Reprise Records in 1963. [3]
Reviewing the CD reissue of the album in 1995, New York Times music critic Stephen Holden compared Love to Riddle's legendary 1955 collaboration with Frank Sinatra, In the Wee Small Hours . "Ms. Clooney was 32 when she recorded the album," Holden wrote, "and her singing is hushed and lovely." [4]
Songs for Young Lovers is the seventh studio album by Frank Sinatra and his first on Capitol Records. It was issued as an 8-song, 10" album and as a 45rpm EP set, but it was the first Sinatra "album" not to have a 78rpm multi-disc-album release. In 2002, it was one of 50 recordings chosen that year by the Library of Congress to be added to the National Recording Registry.
The Concert Sinatra is an album by American singer Frank Sinatra that was released in 1963. It consists of showtunes performed in a 'semi-classical' concert style. Marking a reunion between Sinatra and his frequent collaborator, arranger Nelson Riddle, it was the first full album Riddle arranged on Sinatra's Reprise Records label. Riddle's orchestra consisted of 76 musicians, then the largest assembled for a Sinatra album, and was recorded at four soundstages on the Goldwyn Studios lot using eight tracks of Westrex 35mm film and twenty-four RCA 44-BX ribbon microphones.
My Kind of Broadway is a 1965 studio album by Frank Sinatra. It is a collection of songs from various musicals, pieced together from various recording sessions over the previous four years. The album features songs from nine arrangers and composers, the most ever on a single Sinatra album. While the title of the album is "My Kind of Broadway", both the Gershwin songs on the album "They Can't Take That Away From Me" and "Nice Work If You Can Get It" were written by George and Ira Gershwin for films and not for Broadway musicals.
