nelson was married with kids and was boning rosemary clooney for a few years this went on....now rosie clooney turned into a fat balloon...but back in the day rosie was a hot number...nelson ended up leaving his wife and married a real bitch who made his life miserable...nelson could not write hits like henry mancini....but nelson was a genius but made peanuts for those brilliant arrangements he wrote that made hundreds of millions of dollars over the years...
Good idea there, Leroy. Both giants in the arranging world. I love playing Billy's charts on the Glenn Miller Orch. and digging the inside jokes weaved into the arrangements.
I have this interview on CASSETTE recorded the day it aired on WNEW - AM

Riddle's arrangments played a huge part in Sinatra's iconic position in the music world. Frank loses 2 or 3 nicknames if not for Nelson Riddle.
