Don Costa

Though it was taped 16 years after the first A Man And His Music special, this final installment continues to uphold the high standards of the series, thanks in no small part to the accompaniment of the legendary Count Basie and his orchestra.

In this final installment, aired November 5, 1969, in what had become an annual tradition of televised specials, Sinatra cast a backward glance at some of the highlights of a storied career with Don Costa and his Orchestra as guest performer. He also provides a glimpse into his musical future with an early rendition of " My Way ", soon to become his personal anthem.
