Station manager Mark Heller is buddies with Hal Blaine, the drummer on Something Stupid
and a couple of Frank's 1966-68 works (Summer Wind)....anyhow, he told Nancy Sinatra, that
WEMP radio will do a tribute to her father...and she contacted the station. Hal got the entire
library for WEMP, from Sinatra Enterprises, on CD...for the 24 hour tribute hosted by Sinatra buff R. Alan Campbell, radio announcer and web blogger.
