Frank Sinatra's son: my duet with father was 'wrong'

Frank Sinatra's son tells HuffPost UK that duetting with his father was 'wrong', and reveals what the singing legend taught him.

Frank Sinatra Jr said:

"The idea of the duets albums was the people who joined Frank Sinatra in each song were themselves successful record artists, I never was. I felt a certain apprehension at the time that some people thought my being there was pure nepotism. I felt kind of out of place about that."

"He was a very overpowering personality, his presence seemed to cause certain responses."

"Let's just say this was not a person who could ever be accused of being a saint and this was not a person who could ever be accused of being a devil either."

"He was honest in what it was that he was. he rather disliked deception and I don't blame him. Of course performing is something different, what is done by a performer on stage is called an act but life is not an act and this is the way he looked at it."

"The thing that he taught me was truth. He said to me one time there is no good or bad truth, there is only truth. And I think what he was trying to say was, through life let us be objective and we'll save ourselves a lot of unnecessary detouring and inconvenience."
