There's a dearth of talent in this

be bothered to develop it

True, I broke in easily enough. But I was glad to break out ngaln.

FRANKIE VAUGHAN

Don't get me wrong on this. I 'm not agaJnst a nyone getting an easy e ntry Into show business -provided he or she h as the wit to turn It to good account.

SINATRA and Gordon Jenkins. Not a bad

combination, Indeed. Certainly the Sinatra •olce wedded to the lush orchestration, of MD Jenlcins on "Where Are You?" (Cap. LCT61S1) Is alcln to lu•urlating In a Turlci1h lath, but the musical outcome i1 not quite a match for the man, tracks Franlcle has made with MD Nelson Riddle.

Possibly It all add& up to a matter of personnl choice. I would certalnly not hesitate to recommend this release to Sinatra addictsIf they haven't already battered each other about to get In the queue.

Titles are " Where Are You?": "The Night w e Called n A Day " tone or the mnny char111lng composltl.ma from lhe talented pen of singing
