This Oct. 13, 1957 performance took place on a TV special called “The Edsel Show”
(that the show bears the name of that ill-fated auto is NO reflection on the
performers, of course-- this is strictly a Rolls-Royce ride).
Two heavyweights (to say the LEAST) take center stage for this joyous
1957 performance. The almost 42-year-old Sinatra was in his prime,
smack in the middle of his legendary collaboration with arranger
Nelson Riddle. The 57-year-old Satch, whose most timeless contributions
to the music had been made three decades earlier (The Hot Five and Hot
Seven Sessions, 1925-28), was nonetheless still a revered figure to
jazzmen, and a hugely popular entertainer to the general public.
