Some Questions
I've heard about a song called IT'S TIME FOR YOU that Francis recorded for a commercial in the eighties.My questions are,of course,if the song is available officialy in any compilation,when and where were recorded,who did the arrangements and who wrote the song.

Someone in some thread talked about a version of MACK THE KNIFE recorded in 1984 and only available in the vinyl edition of L.A. IS MY LADY.I've heard the version released in the L.A IS MY LADY SESSIONS video.Is the same one?

What are the Sinatra movies in dvd format released?

It is available offically on Freedom To Swing Cd issued by Las Vegas Conention Center Bureau.

The Mack on the vinyl and in the video are the same.According to what I have seen documented, "it's Time For You" was recorded on July 30, 1980, in New York City, session being conducted by Walt Levinsky, meant for a Chrysler Commercial. This would make the tune the only musical studio recording Sinatra laid down that year! Sinatra's lyrics were written by Sammy Cahn. Who wrote the music??? Haven't seen anything on that.

 Can anyone name who wrote the song for F.S ( It's time for you )
for the chrysler commercial !!!!!!!!!! "It's Time For You"
I believe the actual recording date was July 10, 1980. That is the date reportedly confirmed by Walt Levinsky, the orchestra conductor for the New York City recording session. The arrangement was by Don Costa.

The November 15, 1981 date appeared in an AP news release in October 2001, when the song was used in a promotional campaign by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority. For Sinatra's birthday that year, the LVCVA released a limited-edition promo CD, titled Freedom to Swing: A Las Vegas Tribute to Frank Sinatra, which included this previously unreleased track.

I've also seen dates of July 30 or July 31, 1980 mentioned, for example in this earlier similar thread here in the forum (suitable for merging): Some Questions. [Edit: Now merged above.]

Incidentally, you can hear the song on the web here: "It's Time For You" MP3 File.
