Francis Albert Sinatra With Edward Kennedy Ellington - Francis A Edward K
Review by Dana Blayone
The album Francis A Edward K by Francis Albert Sinatra with Edward Kennedy Ellington is a masterpiece that showcases the talents of two of the greatest musicians of the 20th century. The collaboration between Sinatra and Ellington is seamless, with each artist bringing their unique style and flair to the project.
The album features a mix of classic standards and original compositions, all arranged and performed with the precision and sophistication that one would expect from these two legends. From the sultry balladry of "I Ain't Got Nothin' But the Blues" to the swinging jazz of "Mack the Knife," each track is a testament to the artistry of both Sinatra and Ellington.
One standout track is "Lush Life," a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases Sinatra's emotive vocals and Ellington's lush, intricate arrangement. The song is a perfect example of the synergy between the two artists, with each element complementing the other to create a truly unforgettable listening experience.

Summary by Dana Blayone
Comments
Brilliant.
Both are so symphonic. Ellington plays a standout accompiniant.
Billy May was the one who tied this all together.
Sei il meglio Sinatra, non canti parli
I love you....
Greatness Frank and The Duke.
What a groove!
Beginning is the same as "I'm feeling good".
Pretty darned special. All I Need is the Girl, Sunny and I Like the Sunrise are about as good as it gets. Too bad Sinatra and the Duke didn't collaborate more.
A great collaboration that includes this vastly under-exposed and brilliant tune. Why it isn't among one of Sinatra's iconic standards is a mystery to me.

Wow, the two best ever...like Peanut Butter and Jelly, they belong together ❤️
A missed opportunity for a lot of reasons....certainly not one of Sinatras best......though it does contain one the greatest recordings Frank ever made and the favorite of Nelson Riddle...Indian Summer
I love this dual, I can’t get enough.
UNA JOYA MUSICAL, ETERNA ,IRREPETIBLE .-.-

FRANK & THE DUKE: Siriusly Sinatra satellite radio just played INDIAN SUMMER – our favorite singer with the Duke Ellington orchestra (arranged by Billy May). It features my all-time favorite instrumental solo (musical bridge) on ANY song ever recorded -- by sax giant Johnny Hodges. The album “Francis A & Edward K” was recorded during two days in December 1967 (a very good year). Two months earlier I went by myself (no jazz fans among my friends) to see Duke Ellington 'in person' in my hometown of Ottawa – or rather just across the river in Hull Quebec where liquor laws were lax age 18 -- or less; (crudely-modified driver's licenses were seldom examined too closely.)
No end to his great recordings. One voice, 1000 different shades.
Don't Wait Too Long. ?
