#yiv8489871215 P {margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;}Thanks Ed. I guess nobody else
has recorded "Nobody Has A Better Dream Than Me"? Google just gives a bio of
Tom that mentions the unreleased Sinatra record.
Have you seen "Belfast ?" Van Morrison music is the dominant sound throughout.
Yes I thought it was a very good movie, and a couple of Sinatra references if
my memory serves (the kid mentioning wanting to see "Robin and the 7 Hoods",
and a copy of "Come Fly With Me" next to a record player)
Richard And when the kid mentions "Robin & 7 Hoods," he is told it
is a musical. Doesn't buy it. But they skip it. Outstanding film. A frontrunner
to win best picture with "Power Of The Dog" rightthere, too. "Drive My Car" is
the dark horse. We shall see.Ed

The Clare Teal Show (Jazz FM, February 13th)
Of Van Morrison's "Moondance", he claims "I'm even reliably informed that Frank
Sinatra made a recording of this song, which featured Harry Edison on trumpet,
but unfortunately his version has never been released".
Has anyone ever heard of this?
Richard I have all of the Reprise work sheets, catalog with master
numbers, full page of unissued recordings.There is nothing. I interviewed quite
a few musicians who worked many Reprise sessions. Never a mention.But anything
is possible. Frank did record Tom Shapiro's "Nobody Has A Better Dream Than
Me." Song wasintended for "Trilogy." Frank did 19 takes. Bob Gaudio is a close
friend of Tom's. He had me contact him. Tomgave me a detailed description of
what transpired. And there are other sub rosa efforts. Have you
seen "Belfast ?" Van Morrison music is the dominant sound throughout.Ed
