Frank Songs, My Way
Pro singer of The Great American Songbook, Frank Lamphere, after having finished recording his album Now, THAT’S Amore in mid-2021, had the idea to create an entirely different musical project, an homage to none other than Frank Sinatra.
Wow!.....Now that's original!.....Who'd a thought?.....Yeahhh righhht!
.....How'd he ever come up with that one?
One could easily envision the eye-rolls and comments like those.
Rather than another typical Frank Sinatra tribute (there are tons), this would be a tribute to fifteen songs that Frank Sinatra had recorded over his monumental and genre-defining sixty-year career. To many Sinatra fans out there, “Frank” is a genre, all its own. “Hey, what are you doing?” Response “Listening to some Frank”. Starting with the premise that nobody can equal, let alone surpass the quality of Frank Sinatra’s beloved recordings and in order to not invite comparisons, Frank Lamphere carefully selected a group of these songs and gave them very different, very fresh interpretations. He aptly named this album Frank Songs, My Way.
