Songs for Young Lovers

10lp-371.jpg

This incredible, essential Sinatra Capitol 10″ includes “Violets for Your Furs,” “They Can’t Take That Away From Me,” “I Get a Kick Out of Your” and other “Songs For Lovers” that set the standard for standards and provided the make-out soundtrack for a generation of bobby-sockers in the fifties. Nelson Riddle conducts! This one’s for Jerry who told me about Tom Waits on stage with a mini light post.

Aw, shucks, Matthew, I appreciate that shout out about Tom Waits in Youngstown, Ohio back in the day. It was at a movie theater like many old ones in Youngstown built by the Warner brothers before they left for California. They did fairly well out there. As far as Sinatra’s standards on this album, read The House That George Built subtitled With a Little Help from Irving, Cole, and a Crew of About Fifty, a history of the Golden Age of American popular music, by Wilfrid Sheed. Terrific.
