        Exclusive: A Rare Frank Sinatra Song Gets Unearthed

        Classic

        A rare recording from his 1945 radio program, Songs by Sinatra.

        Had he survived the cold, music legend Frank Sinatra would have celebrated his 100th birthday this year. But there's still some of his stuff almost no one in the world has heard—so all of that is coming out in a new compilation this month.

        Sinatra had a long history of performing the American classic Ol’ Man River by Jerome Kern & Oscar Hammerstein II. The song was one of his go-to tunes for nearly three decades. He sang it during his Man and His Music TV special and even included a stripped-down rendition during his 1962 world tour. The version below is taken from one of his early performances, from a radio show in 1945. At just 30 years old, a young Sinatra sings what will become a lifelong favorite for one of the first times.

        Frank Sinatra: A Voice On Air (1935- 1955) is available for pre-order here.
