GREETINGS friends, neighbors and Sinatra fans worldwide! You are at the right place at the right time... you are AT THE RITZ! I'm Jeffrey Williams, your virtual host, and we are here 24/7 with our new format after celebrating over 20 years on the radio. For many of those years, loyal listeners have requested more Ol' Blue Eyes. Well now At The Ritz! is all SINATRA!

We invite you now to take a break, stop what you are doing and relax for an hour with "The Voice!"' We're happy you joined us and as Frank would say, 'Start Spreading the News!"

An early recording from Columbia, "Dream," starts 

each show, and Sinatra's theme song, " Put Your 

Dreams Away" closes each show.

We begin each program with Frank Sinatra's early big  

band years from 1939 through the early 1940s when 

he was featured as a boy singer with the Harry James and Tommy Dorsey Orchestras. Remember big band 

dancing and seeing Frankie at Bridgeport, CT's Ritz Ballroom?

   All or Nothing At All                   Harry James Orch.

   From the Bottom of My Heart    Harry James Orch.

   I'ts a Lovely Day Tomorrow       Tommy Dorsey Orch.

    Call Me Devil May Care            Tommy Dorsey Orch.

We now turn to "Songs by Sinatra"... the years 1940s radio listeners tuned in even though they couldn't see 

his 'Young Blue Eyes!"

From 1942 to 1952 Columbia Records was Sinatra's 

label during the time young bobby-soxers swooned 

and called him "The Voice!"

   Try a Little Tenderness

   Autumn in New York

From the 1950s and beyond, millions of albums sold 

by Capitol Records and Sinatra's own recording label, Reprise," earned him the title "Chairman of the Board!"

   Just One of Those Things

   Takin' a Chance On Love  

Well, its time put away those Sinatra dreams for 

another day until you can join us again. Remember, 

we are here 24/7 at attheritz.org so visit us often and 

tell your friends. Program music will change every 

couple of weeks so maybe you will hear your Sinatra favorites over time.

Call me if you have question or comments at 203-726-7348. For now, this is Jeffrey Williams bidding you farewell and hoping you stay well until we are together again, with Frank Sinatra, At The Ritz!
