Sinatra
Sings
Far Into Night
HOLLYWOOD
(AP) -- Let's keep
a record date with
Frank Sinatra.
Right
now he's top man
in the record
album field.
The
remarkable thing
is that Sinatra, a
big record seller
in the early '40s
couldn't have been
colder in the
early '50s.
No one seemed to
buy his
disks. Now,
every album is a
smash.
To
record, he starts
at 9:30 in the
evening and winds
up after
midnight.
"The voice is more
loosened up at
night," he
explains.
One night's
session usually
results in four
numbers, but not
always.

Big
Entertainment
Names Coming
Top
Recording
Artists Due
To Visit
Vancouver This
Year
By
RED ROBINSON
(Vancouver
Sun April 25,
1958)
|
Last
year was a pretty fantastic
year for entertainment in
Vancouver with big
money-makers coming to town.
Entertainers
such as Frank Sinatra, Harry
Belafonte and Elvis Presley
all visited last year.
This year is
going to be just as
big. On the way to the
city now is Rick Nelson, who
will be here in June.
"The Show of Stars for 1958"
will be here in May
featuring Frankie Avalon,
Laverne Baker, Clyde
McPhatter, the Everly
Brothers, Paul Anka, the
Monotones, the Silhouettes
and many more top recording
artists.
It will be a
one-night stand at the
Georgia Auditorium with two
shows that night.
Also coming to
town to the supper clubs are
the Four Knights, the Mills
Brothers, Jimmy Rodgers, the
Gaylords, Guy Mitchell,
Billy Eckstein and maybe
Jonie James.
This is just
the start of centennial year
and you can look for more
top talent on the way.
Right now Bonnie Guitar and
the Lancers are playing
opposing club dates.
This town is alive with
entertainment, and I think
we all like it this way.
* * * * * * *
Last time
Bonnie was in town she was
with Gene Vincent at a
one-nighter at Georgia
Auditorium. It was the
wrong type of show for this
female thrush and now she is
enjoying the sophisticated
atmosphere of a night club.
Although
Bonnie's disc of "Dark Moon"
was the big seller in the
northwest, Gale Storm had
the big seller that went
over the million mark.
The next song
that Bonnie recorded was
"Mr. Fire Eyes" which
enjoyed much wider
recognition and got closer
to the million mark in
sales.
Bonnie is one
of the most sincere people
in show business
today. She is making
her home now in
California. She is the
gal that paved the way for
other artists in the
northwest.
Just recently
another gal from Bonnie's
home town has been
successful along the same
lines. Her name is Pat
Suzuki and she is on the way
up that ladder of success
right now.
