Live at Blackpool Opera House 1953

This show, like most, reflected the renewed confidence that Sinatra displayed generally throughout this 1953 UK tour. Sinatra sings in often inspired but casual mode, almost providing a stand-up routine between songs, and playing everything by ear. Billy Ternent's Orchestra lived up to the occasion, providing a fine accompaniment, while Sinatra's regular pianist Bill Miller, was also on hand. The result is a performance by one of the 20th Century’s greatest singers at the peak of his art.
