Robert Davi is a famous Bond villain who is now on a mission to perform every Sinatra song that was ever recorded, and last night he performed at the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut. Wearing a black tux and tie, Davi took the appreciative audience on a whirlwind tour of the Great American Songbook (or what Davi called “Shakespeare for America”) and Sinatra–associated standards.

He was backed by a 22-piece, piping hot swing band led by Grammy Award-winning pianist, arranger, composer and conductor Randy Waldman, who played with Sinatra and has been leading bands ever since. Brian Benison and I have done work for Randy many times in the past, and it’s always a pleasure to work with such amazing talent.
