Frank Sinatra 1994 - Back To Back - #1: On February 25, 1995, a 79 year old Frank Sinatra would play at a private party for 1200 select guests on the closing night of the Frank Sinatra Desert Classic golf tournament. That would be the last time Sinatra sang before a live audience. About 2 months earlier, in December 1994, Sinatra played 2 shows in Fukodome, Japan. They would be his final public concerts. This soundboard recording captures every moment of the first of those 2 nights, on December 19, 1994, 2 dozen years ago today. Maybe he knew the end was near, as the show is packed with Sinatra classics, such as Come Fly with Me, Fly Me To The Moon, The Lady is a Tramp, New York New York, Summer Wind, My Way and even Strangers In The Night, a tune Frank was known to despise! Download this one, then come back tomorrow for part 2 of this entry.

I must admit that even if Motorhead's Overkill or Deep Purple's Child in Time list among my best songs, I'm still moved by New York, New York by Sinatra, the same feeling when I landed once in the Big Apple like a tourist from old Europe a long time ago.
