These magic, moments, Filled with love!

Schöne Zusammenstellung, Andi!

Nur die Zeile unter Factoids müsste anders heißen:
The finest American popular singer of our time

Hallo Andreas,

danke für die interessanten Daten!

Nicht, dass ich die "Grammy-Awards" allzu hoch schätzen würde , aber ich finde es schon etwas peinlich, wie wenige Frank davon für seine großartigen Alben erhalten hat. Das mit dem "besten Cover" bei "Only The Lonely" ist ja eh schon ein Dauergag, den Frank auch in der Show mit Elvis aufgegriffen hat (und über den im übrigen bisher jeder lachen musste, dem ich das Album vorspielte und dem gegenüber ich diese "Ehrung" erwähnte) - aber nur EIN gewürdigtes Album ("Come Dance With Me") in der Capitol-Phase, ebenfalls nur EIN richtiges Album ("September Of My Years") in der Reprise-Zeit und einer für "Man And His Music" ist schon sehr dürftig...

GRuß, Andreas
