PART  411



           FRANK SINATRA  - Ol' Man River  (1946)
                            



     "Ol' Man River" is a song in the 1927 musical "Show Boat" that expresses the African American hardship and struggles of the time with the endless, uncaring flow of the Mississippi River .Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra had a no. 1 hit recording of the song in 1928. However, the most famous rendition of it, one that is still noted today, was sung by Paul Robeson in James Whale's classic 1936 film version of "Show Boat".The song became an American classic, and was performed by many musicians and musical groups, including Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra, Bix Beiderbecke, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Gordon MacRae, Robert Merrill, Sam Cooke, Al Jolson, Screaming Jay Hawkins, Cilla Black, Django Reinhardt, Ray Charles, Jim Croce, Jimmy Ricks and the Ravens, The Beach Boys, Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed, The Jeff Beck Group, Muslim Magomayev and Aretha Franklin

Frank Sinatra & Dean Martin & Samy Davies Junior once were real good music based cinema artists. Films had nearly no story but still were nice to see. Do you have some more stuff from them ?
