The Days of Wine and Roses

Francis Albert Sinatra was an American singer and Academy Award-winning actor, often cited as the finest male American popular song vocalist of the 20th century. Over a career that spanned seven decades, Sinatra recorded a catalogue of classic albums such as In the Wee Small Hours, Songs For Swingin’ Lovers, Come Fly With Me, Only the Lonely and September of My Years along with numerous signature songs like “My Way”; “New York, New York”; “Strangers in the Night”; and “It Was a Very Good Year”; “The Days Of Wine and Roses”. With over 250 million records sold worldwide, Sinatra and his music remain hugely popular nearly seventy years after his first recordings, while, as an actor, he became highly acclaimed for his performances in films such as From Here to Eternity, The Man with the Golden Arm, Suddenly, Pal Joey, Ocean’s Eleven, and The Manchurian Candidate.
