Comment:

In 1969, around the time he recorded [i]My Way[/i], Frank was sick of the music business and ready to quit — understandable, perhaps, given the rise of rock 'n' roll. But that didn't mean the Chairman of the Board would hand in his resignation lightly. Just listen to his cover of the Beatles' "Yesterday," and you hear a master at work, back in the saloon with "a shadow hangin' over me" like no shadow Lennon & McCartney could ever summon. Even further down the line, we find his medley "The Gal That Got Away / It Never Entered My Mind" from [i]She Shot Me Down[/i] (1981), a late-era album (his final LP for Reprise, the label he set up) that nails those essential saloon qualities — world-worn experience, nicotine-stained regret, and the indelible scent of loneliness.
