Frank Sinatra — L.A. Is My Lady (40th Anniversary 2024 Mix)

Produced and conducted by Quincy Jones

Album features George Benson, Lionel Hampton, and Bob James, among others

In celebration of its 40th anniversary, Capitol Records and Universal Music Enterprises (UMe), in conjunction with Frank Sinatra Enterprises, announce the October 25, 2024 release of Frank Sinatra's L.A. Is My Lady with Quincy Jones and Orchestra.

This vinyl is a reproduction of the 1984 LP release and features the original 11 songs.

For the album, Frank Sinatra reunited with Quincy Jones, with whom he'd last worked 20 years earlier on the classic album It Might as Well Be Swing with Count Basie. The album was a high-energy event that showcased Sinatra's timeless voice paired with Jones's vibrant and sophisticated production of Quincy Jones, who masterfully brought together an extraordinary ensemble of musicians, including jazz guitar George Benson, vibraphonist Lionel Hampton, and pianist Bob James. Legendary songwriter Sammy Cahn wrote new lyrics for Sinatra for"Teach Me Tonight" and "Until the Real Thing Comes Along."

Upon release L.A. Is My Lady hit the Billboard Top 200 and Top 10 on the jazz chart, with the title song capturing the essence of Sinatra's enduring connection with Los Angeles. A music video for the track featured cameos by many celebrities, including Nancy Sinatra, Dean Martin, David Lee Roth, Eddie Van Halen, Donna Summer, Jane Fonda, and Tommy Lasorda, and aired on MTV and VH1.
