September Of My Years - September of My Years is a 1965 studio album by Frank Sinatra, arranged by Gordon Jenkins. It won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year, beating out fellow nominees The Beatles (Help!), Barbra Streisand (My Name Is Barbra), Eddy Arnold (My World) and the soundtrack to The Sound of Music. Sinatra was to turn 50 years old in December 1965, and the release of this album along with A Man And His Music and Strangers In The Night marked a surge of popularity in his music. Both September Of My Years and A Man And His Music won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. Sinatra’s performance of “It Was A Very Good Year” won the Grammy Award for Best Vocal Performance-Male at the Grammy Awards of 1966. Arranger Gordon Jenkins was awarded the Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Arrangement Accompanying Vocalist(s) for the same song. This was the first album Sinatra and Jenkins had recorded together since 1962′s All Alone. Jenkins and Sinatra would next work together on the 1980 album Trilogy: Past, Present, Future. CBS television cameras were rolling the night Sinatra recorded “It Was A Very Good Year.” The edited result was included in a Walter Cronkite CBS News special about the singer’s 50th birthday, broadcast on November 16, 1965. Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine September of My Years is one of Frank Sinatra's triumphs of the '60s, an album that consolidated his strengths while moving him into new territory, primarily in terms of tone. More than the double-disc set A Man and His Music — which was released a year after this album — September of My Years captures how Sinatra was at the time of his 50th birthday. Gordon Jenkins' rich, stately, and melancholy arrangements give the album an appropriate reflective atmosphere. Most of the songs are new or relatively recent numbers; every cut fits into a loose theme of aging, reflection, and regret. Sinatra, however, doesn't seem stuck in his ways — though the songs are rooted in traditional pop, they touch on folk and contemporary pop. As such, the album offered a perfect summary, as well as suggesting future routes for the singer.
