·"On the Radio: The Lucky Strike 'Lite Up Time' Shows" - Frank Sinatra
On the Radio: The Lucky Strike "Lite-Up Time" Shows compiles a series of nightly broadcasts Sinatra recorded for CBS, with heavy 'promotional consideration,' of course, from those cigarettes inhaled one after the other in so many of Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer stories. These cuts don't provide the been-there, seen-it-all Chairman of the Board that would one day pack The Sands where he would lament about his "very good years." These ARE the good years. The exhaustive On the Radio delivers 25 different songs—the same ones he would both lay down in the recording studio on the same day he played these sessions and with which he would serenade audiences that same night in New York and Hollywood nightclubs. Any exhaustion is hardly detectable, though, as Sinatra sounds as unique and professional as ever, especially on swingers he would carry far into his golden years such as "You Do Something to Me" or "I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm." Sinatra also shines on ballads, the highlight being "Don't Blame Me". The real draw here is being able to close your eyes and imagine coming home after work, firing up a tasty Lucky Strike (this is required, of course), mixing a Rob Roy and tuning in to hear Old Blue Eyes do what he does best before he even hit his prime.
