[BigWheelHawaii]

Aloha,,, Just another great The Italian crooner... Never to be replaced, only

enjoyed...

[tk745]

Bravissimo, grandissimo, immortale... ciao Frankie!!!

[frankiehiyo]

One of my favourite singers. What an era the 50s and 60s where, when it was possible to latch onto Rock "n" Roll, but you could listen to a Frankie Laine, Frank Sinatra, and Johnny Ray song, and not think it out of place. Such was radio then. I could listen to Elvis, but would enjoy a Frankie Laine song just as much.

[Franny460]

WONDERFUL!!!!!! What a great voice!!!!

[FellowTownsman]

Outstanding song, been looking for this for ages. Wasnt it in an old Bogart film as a music score? I have a distinct childhood memory of it.

[SpeedTriple59]

What a voice as soon as he crancked it up you knew it was Frankie..Bless sadly missed another great gone..

[disident2008]

Unless you lived these times you do not know anything. Singers that could sing. Now 73 once a young strutting fighting cock, now a senile old bugger. But Frankie Dolly and others let me relive a wonderful time in my life. May they go on for ever,

[Don5049curtis]

One of the great singers from the 50s.

[TheNLCrane]

Frankie Laine sang everything with passion and obvious enjoyment. He never just mouthed words. His repertoire is great. I have enjoyed and responded to all his music.

[pyannaguy]

I was a pro musician for 35 years, just turned 60, and never wanted to be one of those old farts who didn't give new music a chance and just whined for the old days. I've liked plenty of things over the years, but in terms of vocalists, nobody tops the greats from Frankie Laine's era.

Tony Bennett, Eddie Fisher, Eddie Arnold...Heck, for that matter, even Elvis and the best of the early Rock & Roll icons...there just hasn't been anybody to match those artists in decades. So distinctive!

[psychodamned]

Scott Walker ???

[pyannaguy]

@psychodamned I'm with you, obviously, not only does Scott still have a wondrous, haunting baritone, but the list goes on of great singers, from the 60's forward. Let's remember, though, that those who followed benefitted from the era of Laine, who you have to admit really has a sound. Even though he had some crooners like Sinatra to check out - he was really pretty unique with less to draw on, in his time or in recent history. I mean, "Jezebel?" "Rawhide" -tough to categorize.

[psychodamned]

Ha ha I'm a Muso too, My Father actually worked with Frankie at the talk of the North in Eccles near Manchester in the 70's : ) I absolutely love Jezebel - My band are lookin into covering it. I told Dave Vanian of The Damned they should do it, he did but, he did the Gene Vincent arrangement.

He had a great raw power to his voice aand could croon and rasp as well !

I recall him re-recording Jezebel, with more of a sixteeen, drum orientated beat to it ?

Or was I just imagining it ?

[pyannaguy]

@psychodamned

Oh, Yeah...Jezebel had something like a Bolero feel on at least one version I remember. Ever heard "The Moonlight Gambler" by Frankie? There's a clip here on The Tube.

Slightly off topic - who knows, you might not have cared for them, but I wish The Specials had put out a bit more stuff. (I guess you could say my taste is pretty eclectic - loved Ska, but I'm having a boogie woogie piano renaissance. Check out Vince Weber - Vince the Prince (here) for strange production. Cheers!

[paulhirst999]

I am actually in this recording.(2nd row in at 1.05) Went there as a ten year old.What a pleasant shock to see it.

[johnny9022]

when was this????

[paulhirst999]

@johnny9022

I believe it was 1975, possibly 1974. My parents were members of the fan club (FLIAS) and Frankie actually came to visit our house in Yorkshire for an afternoon. I have a picture somewhere with me sat on his knee. We used to get an Xmas card every year until he died.

[johnny9022]

Oh how nice, its amazing how fast time goes by and we dont even realize it, it seems it was only yesterday i was 18 i am now 35. Great singer, i love this kind of older but great music. from the days when you had to have the talent to make it.,

[paulhirst999]

Dont think i fully appreciated it when i was 10,being dragged around the country to FLIAS meetings but i know what you man.

[colinlyne]

Paul, it was probably 1976! I remember it well, nice to see your comment.

[phulme61]

a great singer,my moms Favourite!..pdh

[JIMMYAR2]

te amo te amooooooooooo  precioso video mis 5*****

[sherom]

All class !!

[cmsgram]

Fantastic! Thank You for bringing back many wonderful memories!

[BartelDoo]

Why can't some people love Sinatra, some people love Frankie Laine, and some people like both?  Life is not a competition - it's a banquet.

[hlinkchellonl]

When I was 17 Y. I danced of this tango, .....and now I;m ..75 And dance on the same singer !!

[mtkane209]

I was president of Frankie Laine's fan club in Philadelphia. I had members who lived all over, one especially lived in England where they loved him as much as we did. He was such a real, genuine person who cared for his fans. He's gone but not forgotten,

[Sedma9]

I''m from Croatia. My mom loved him very much and had 2 LPs. so I grow up listening to his music. When I bought my first CD player I ordered 2 CDs from USA cause you couldn't buy it in Croatia then. That was the only thing I ever bought by internet. My kids grow up listening to his music too (it was always in my CD player :)) and we still do listen to his music. Awesome voice.

[vandywilliam]

Few songs have such an effective and powerful delivery as Frankie Laine singing this one. This live performance doesn't quite match the original recording in overall effect, but it's great nevertheless.

[Gheorgyi]

@vandywilliam Quite an extension of voice, from tenorto baritone. Remarkable singer. Gheorghij

[Kay82Schmidt]

@vandywilliam Couldn't find the original anywhere here to listen to. i heard it the first time it came out. There are some things good about being older.

[nancygodoybaeza]

¡¡¡UNA  VOZ MARAVILLOSA!!!

[joselineodile]

yes it is so beautiful. I loved Frankie from the first time I heard him in 1960, my first time in the US, I am French, and I still love him today. So far I am concern, no one can ever be as good as he was. Next best would be Frank Sinatra, then Dean. I know I am giving my age but who cares, I love music still.

[DunhillHilton]

Magnificent !
