Frank Sinatra, long acclaimed as the world's
greatest performer of popular music, is the artist who set the standard for all
others to follow. Mr. Sinatra was, of
course, more than a singer - he was an actor, recording artist, cabaret and
concert star, radio and television personality and, on occasion, producer,
director and conductor.
The Duprees and Frank Sinatra have some special things in common: both
originally from New Jersey (Jersey City and Hoboken,) but more importantly,
both are known for recording beautiful, romantic love songs especially those
from the Big Band era.
Frank Sinatra will always be remembered for his wonderful vocal interpretations
of songs and of course those masterful arrangements. No one can truly
emulate or duplicate those extraordinary recordings. Instead, the concept of this album pays tribute to Frank Sinatra with
today's Duprees performing a vocal group's approach to some of those wonderful
recordings he made famous. It is with
this album The Duprees celebrate Frank Sinatra's 100th Birthday (December 12,
2015). It was a labor of love for us to
record these great songs.
A special "Thank You" to our musical director Mark Baron for his
brilliant arrangements.
Happy 100th, Mr. Sinatra!
The Duprees
