Record #0047: Can I Steal a Little Love / Your Love For Me – FRANK SINATRA


Capitol F3608 (original) USA, 1956
Words & Music by:  Side A – Phil Tuminello; Side B – Barry Parker
Musicians:
Frank Sinatra (vocals) with Nelson Riddle’s Orchestra
Recording sessions:
 USA, Dec. 3, 1956
Highest chart positions:  Side A - US #15; Side B - US #60

The title song is from the film “Rock, Pretty Baby” starring Sal Mineo. As the movie was with a rock’n’roll theme, it could be kind of funny to have a Sinatra track included in it. Sinatra criticized the genre frequently at the time. Well, after seeing a couple of clips from the movie, I’d say the music was still quite far from rock, thus Ol’ Blue Eyes’ song fits in just fine.

List price:  “Very Good+” is $20 and “Near Mint” is $40
