For the greatest, funniest, hippest Rosolino singing and playing, I highly
recommend the album (or CD) "Turn Me Loose". Frank sings on almost every
tune and he is great. On "Pennies From Heaven" he manages to combine playing
and singing, and does some hilarious scatting and yodeling as well. This man
was a musical genius with a marvelously inventive sense of humor. I am so
sad that he chose to end his life so early. He had so much more to say to
us.
