Biography:
Language:
English
<p>Francis Albert "Frank" Sinatra (December 12, 1915 – May 14, 1998) was an American singer and film actor. Beginning his musical career in the swing era with Harry James and Tommy Dorsey, Sinatra found unprecedented success as a solo artist from the early to mid-1940s after being signed by Columbia Records in 1943. Being the idol of the "bobby soxers", he released his first album, The Voice of Frank Sinatra in 1946. His professional career had stalled by the 1950s, but it was reborn in 1953 after he won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his performance in From Here to Eternity. He signed with Capitol Records in 1953 and released several critically lauded albums (such as In the Wee Small Hours, Songs for Swingin' Lovers!, Come Fly with Me, Only the Lonely and Nice 'n' Easy). Sinatra left Capitol to found his own record label, Reprise Records in 1961 (finding success with albums such as Ring-a-Ding-Ding!, Sinatra at the Sands and Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim), toured internationally, was a founding member of the Rat Pack and fraternized with celebrities and statesmen, including John F. Kennedy.</p> <p>source: Wikipedia</p>

<p>Ol’ Blue Eyes was de bijnaam van Frank Sinatra, ook wel The Voice genoemd. Samen met <a class="underline hover:text-muz-blue" href="https://muzikum.eu/nl/120-3887/elvis-presley/biografie.html">Elvis Presley</a> en <a class="underline hover:text-muz-blue" href="https://muzikum.eu/nl/120-4304/tom-jones/biografie.html">Tom Jones</a> hoorde hij tot de grootheden van de jaren 50 en begin ’60 tot <a class="underline hover:text-muz-blue" href="https://muzikum.eu/nl/120-3389/the-beatles/biografie.html">The Beatles</a> een nieuw tijdperk inluiden. Hij zong Jazz op een nieuwe moderne manier waardoor hij een nieuw publiek aantrok: jeugd. Populaire muziek was voor enkel iets voor volwassenen en daar kwam vanaf de jaren ’40 verandering in. Zo werd Frank Sinatra aanvankelijk het eerste tieneridool. Sinatra had ook z’n reputatie mee van gladde en coole zanger.</p> <p>Hij bracht vooral nummers uit de jaren ’20 en ’30 die hij in een vlot kleedje stopte: Night and day, Begin the beguine, I’ve got a crush on you, … En net als Elvis ontdekte hij de film. Maar in tegenstelling tot Elvis kon Sinatra wel acteren en kreeg een Oscar voor een bijrol in From Here To Eternity. Later speelde hij nog grote rollen in Ocean’s Eleven (als Danny Ocean), The Manchurian Candidate en Guys and Dolls.</p> <p>Hierna ging hij net als Elvis en Tom Jones naar Las Vegas om daar het geluk te proeven. Samen met zangers <a class="underline hover:text-muz-blue" href="https://muzikum.eu/nl/120-4891/dean-martin/biografie.html">Dean Martin</a> en <a class="underline hover:text-muz-blue" href="https://muzikum.eu/nl/120-8499/sammy-davis-jr/biografie.html">Sammy Davis Jr.</a> vormde hij de Rat Pack, een groep muzikanten die samen trokken en plezier maak-ten. In die periode werd Sinatra ook regelmatig in verband genoemd met de maffia. In de Las Vegas maakte hij wel z’n grootste nummers: New York, New York, Strangers in the night, Come fly with me, Fly me to the moon, The lady is a tramp, Love and Marriage (dat ook in de tv-serie wordt gebruikt) en dit mooie My Way. Origineel is dat een Frans nummer: Comme d’habitude waar zanger Paul Anka een Engelse tekst heeft geschreven. <a class="underline hover:text-muz-blue" href="https://muzikum.eu/nl/120-4889/paul-anka/biografie.html">Paul Anka</a> overtuigt Sinatra om het nummer op te nemen en wordt in 1969 zowat z’n grootste hit. Sinatra covert dan wel veel, hij heeft een stem die je doet wegsmelten en die je herkent uit de duizenden. Hij stierf in 1998.</p> <p>Geboren: 12 december 1915<br /> Gestorven: 14 mei 1998</p>
