The Boxpress Music Time Show with Brian Hughes

Show# 15: Celebrating Frank Sinatra's 93rd Birthday: "Suicidal Sinatra - Part I"


Brian helps celebrate Frank Sinatra's birthday by concentrating on the singer's bipolar musical nature: Sinatra always considered himself a manic depressive, so why not concentrate on the extreme lows and exuberant highs of Ol' Blue Eyes? In the first two parts of this four part series, Brian will concentrate on the "saloon" or sad songs of Frank's repertoire. In the final two parts - the high flying, fast paced, world-on-a-string swing numbers.
