 I was born into business through my father. I was one of those kids who always wanted to be around his father when he was working. I used to be a fly on the wall when my dad went around.

Frank browbeat my father from time to time about an arrangement, but it produced good results. Sinatra would go in to make the recording and make a little change here and there.
