Frank Sinatra - Sunrise in the morning (LP Sinatra & Co)[1971]

Details

Description

Sinatra & Company is an album by American singer Frank Sinatra, released in 1971.The first side of this album is in the bossa nova style and the second side is influenced by soft rock, with two songs by John Denver.
The bossa nova shots were originally cut for a sequel to the critically acclaimed Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim. Arranged by Eumir Deodato, recording was completed, artwork completed and an 8-track tape release of the planned album, titled Sinatra-Jobim, was made available shortly when the decision to pull out was made. Some of Sinatra's less mainstream albums had not performed well, and fears drove the creation of this hybrid.
Three songs recorded during the Sinatra-Jobim session - "Bonita", "Sabiá", and "Off Key (Desafinado)" - were omitted from Sinatra & Company. "Sabiá" was released in the US as the flip side of the 45rpm single "Lady Day" (Reprise 0970) in 1970, and was issued along with "Bonita" on the 1977 compilation Portrait of Sinatra and the 1979 compilation, Sinatra Jobim Sessions.
