A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action

A Major Disappointment

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Frank Sinatra filled the most famous indoor sports arena in the world Madison Square Garden for this concert. A quick look around during audience shots you'll see many a celebrity. The event is introduced by a man more known for sports than entertainment Howard Cosell.The current Madison Square Garden is either the fourth or fifth arena to use that name. A few months earlier the first entertainers to open the place were Bing Crosby and Bob Hope. Like them Frank Sinatra sold the place out.The vocal highlight for me of all the songs he sang was Angel Eyes. He recorded it for Capitol records in the 50s and it's usually was included in his live concerts. He puts a lot into this version.I have to say that I was amused by the fact that Buddy Rich was in the audience. These two had a rough history going all the way back to the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra. Never though I'd see him at a Sinatra event.Frank's usual standard of vocal excellence is met.

surprised to see only one previous comment on this spectacular show Frank at his brilliant best including all the big hits. Got this on video called My Way It has three parts a 60s special,The Main Event and a Japanese gig from the 80s all great.To think i used to regard Sinatra as some old geezer(he was 54 at the time) Now you see the likes of Paul McCartney,elton,roger daltrey,mick jagger etc still going strong in their 60s it makes you appreciate how good this man was.That fabulous voice! Look out for this tape,3 great shows from one of the worlds greatest performers Just put your feet up and enjoy,and it only cost me a fiver!
