    Aw man.. now I wanna meet your dad! Jr sounds a lot like his dad when he sang but not as smooth... likely because he didn't want to be a singer so he didn't work at it. There are a couple of Christmas albums with him and Nancy singing along with their father that I enjoy immensely.

    That's one of my biggest regrets is that I didn't ever get to see Frank live. I have loved the guy since I was maybe six years old. Ironically my parents don't like big band or jazz. My grandmother bought my brother and I a tv to share and when my parents hooked up the cable to it I watched TNT and then AMC like they were going out of style. That's where I "found" Sinatra.

    I never got to see Frank live, either...wish I did. I did see Sammy Davis, Jr. as a kid in Vegas. That was cool.

    I don't know what defines a crooner so I'm throwing neil diamond in the mix.
