mjzee Posted Thursday at 10:50 PM Report Posted Thursday at 10:50 PM Release date June 6: A groundbreaking new album featuring 12 never-before-heard Frank Sinatra arrangements, brought to life by Grammy-nominated artist Seth MacFarlane, and a 70-piece orchestra comprised of all-star players from Los Angeles and London at the coveted Skywalker Sound Studios in Marin County, CA. The album includes masterful arrangements by Sinatra's legendary collaborators - Nelson Riddle, Billy May and Don Costa - including a unique conceptual Nelson Riddle arrangement of "Lush Life" written for Frank Sinatra, which they attempted to record but never completed. `Lush Life: The Lost Sinatra Arrangements' is more than a tribute album - it's a time capsule opened for the first time, of arrangements written for classic Sinatra albums such as `Come Fly With Me' and `Only the Lonely,' that were never recorded. MacFarlane's warm, expressive vocals breathe new life into these carefully preserved arrangements. Quote
JSngry Posted Thursday at 11:01 PM Report Posted Thursday at 11:01 PM Possibly interested, just for the arrangements Who is John Wilson? How many Riddle charts are there? If it's just "Lush Life", that one has been "circulated"... Quote
Dub Modal Posted Friday at 12:05 PM Report Posted Friday at 12:05 PM Interesting. Got to hand it to MacFarlane - get rich and famous THEN record jazz albums. Quote
