...course, there's always Harry Connick Jr., the smart-dressing, piano-playing New Orleans singer who is Sinatra's most obvious disciple. On his exhilaratingly retro 1989 sound track When Harry Met Sally, Connick displayed flashes of Sinatra's golden tones and a dash of his lush romanticism. You could almost imagine the bobby soxers.

He has sequenced the songs Lush Life ("I used to visit all the very gay places"), Misty ("Look at me/ I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree") and Love for Sale ("Love for sale/ Advertising young love for sale") back to back to back--all that's missing is "Isn't it rich...
