These Three Voices Define Romance!
What are you running for Valentine's Day on your station? May we suggest a two hour special featuring the original Sultans of Swoon: Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis, Jr. It's the "Frank & Friends Valentines Special", only from PRX.
The show is produced and hosted by noted Sinatra expert and syndicated radio personality Jim Raposa and features some of the most romantic songs ever written...sung by the men who helped set the stage for couples to fall in love. This is not nostalgia, this is timeless music from The Great American Songbook, programmed to create appointment listening by your listeners.
Classic songs like: I've Got A Crush On You; Everybody Loves Somebody; My Funny Valentine; My Heart Stood Still; Fly Me To The Moon; Volare and Unforgettable are presented here (plus many others) along with rare interviews with Frank Sinatra, Dean martin and Sammy Davis, Jr. Additional appearences by legendary producer Quincy Jones and entertainer (and Dean Martin's daughter) Deana Martin help to round out this musical love fest.
