Sinatra made his contempt for rock more than obvious.
He wrote that the most brutal, ugly, degenerate, vicious form of expression it has been his displeasure to hear.

I like Sinatra, and I love late 60's and 70's music - that's when I grew up. I thought his version of Winchester Cathedral was better than the original (although I'm not crazy about the original), and I liked 'Leroy Brown, but c'mon, ain't no one gonna make a better version of that song than Jim Croce. A lot of the songs reviewed, Something, Didn't We, Nobody Wins (a song I'd never heard before) all fit Sinatra perfectly. You know what they say - It's Sinatra's world, we just live in it

ROCKS ??????? He could never make it in jazz, even... ROCK ?? nahhhh... he will never make it. I still remember when he took down SATISFACTION from top 1, with his Stranger in the Night. Never liked him. Nah.... Mr Blue Eyes is no rocking man. NO WAY

I don't own any of Frank Sinatra's recordings, but in about 1981 my wife and I saw him in concert in Kansas City. At that concert he did a very nice version of "Something" and he commented to the audience that he thought it was the best love song ever written.
