op please let me reblog your jazz post...... i love cab calloway, billie holliday, lena horne, dorothy dandridge, and a whole bunch of other 30-60s jazz artists. ur post was made for me.... im on my knees begging............. (this is a half joke. i love jazz but u dont actually have to turn reblogs on. i hope ur having a good day btw :3c ) PS, i saw ur replies on that post and yeah. frank sinatra.... more like mid sinatra. hes only good if thats the only experience u have to jazz music. the moment i listened to other people, i stopped liking frank as much LMAO. listening to him now is like eating bland/under seasoned food i think. idk who the lala land guy is though, i never watched it.
LMFAOOO unfortunately that post is closed. but u have a reblog in my heart!!
i loooove those artists too. i like some of frank sinatra's music but generally am not a huge fan. as a person, he has done some really great activism that shouldn't be overlooked, but generally his political views were kind of... all over the place lol. but ig he was just a product of his time
one thing i find hilarious is he was like, best friends and borderline in love with JFK. they spent a lot of time together, so much so that sinatra built a whole extension to his house to accommodate a visit from the president. except jfk suspected sinatra of engaging in mob behavior, which his campaign/administration was staunchly against, so when jfk visited california he stayed with the raging racist abuser bing crosby instead of frank sinatra.
apparently this broke sinatra's heart. so my wife and I have this joke that his song "That's Life" is about getting rejected by JFK. i like literally cant listen to him now bc this is all i think about
