I suspect many people familiar with Frank Loesser's classic song "Luck Be A Lady," probably know it as a Frank Sinatra standard. (Note: that cover was first released as part of the Reprise Musical Repertory Theatre series in 1963 and while I was working at Reprise I stumbled on the 4 discs and repackaged them for CD boxset in 2000.) But the first singer was Robert Alda (Alan's dad) who sang it in the Broadway show Guys and Dolls. (Marlon Brando sang it in the film in 1955.) This energetic swing version was recorded by the Detroit-based Atomic Fireballs.
