Cocktail Nation

We all know that Frank Sinatra spent a lot of time in Palm Springs and I think it would be fair to say that he put Palm Springs on the map. Well with the release of the film Sinatra in Palm Springs we bring you a Lounge Special based on the Chairman of the boards time in Palm Springs, our segment Dear. Koop sees one of our listeners jetting off to see spy jazz act , we check out Lounge Life Magazine and the World Of Swank gig guide.
