For The Record
'The Summer Knows' and 'If' were a study in contrasts. The first was done in eighteen takes (So much for one-take Sinatra. That's for movies; for albums, he has done as many as twenty-five or thirty. . .). 'If' was done in two. It would have been done in one except that FS noticed some 'sand' in it. Not enough of the gravel-quality 'to sell to a dealer,' he said, 'but I think we need another one.'
I was with Mom and Hugh in Palm Springs waiting out the last two weeks of a difficult pregnancy when Dad recorded this album. John Brady described the end of one session: 'He said goodnight to some of the soft, pretty ladies, and to Father O'Connell [Grandma's priest] . . . "Say a couple of small prayers for my Nancy, OK?" said the singer. "I'm gonna be a granddad, you know." '
