Dylan was in a Melancholy Mood at the Beacon Theatre 11, 21, 2021

Like Dylan, I too felt melancholy last November when I saw how the video of this short Sinatra cover turned out. So it starts with stills, then some jumpy footage, but finally settles into a very watchable video about halfway through. At least the sound is nice throughout. When it comes to Dylan, I guess something is always better than nothing. The song appears on the second of Dylan s three American Songbook albums, Fallen Angels, and was originally recorded by Frank Sinatra with Harry James and his orchestra. Written by Walter Schumann and Vick R. Knight, Sr. , it was the Bside of Sinatra s very first single, released in 1939. The Aside tune was From the Bottom of My Neither song charted, but somehow Frank Sinatra eventually found success in spite of that.
