Frank and Yule - Sinatra House

 

Frank & Yule

At FRANK'S HOUSE

PALM SPRINGS

"Yul Brynner and his wife Doris were close friends of Frank Sinatra. They were at the Compound so often that they had their own room, hooked onto the great hall and marked with a bronze nameplate . Sinatra taught Doris Brynner how to mix a martini.

Doris Brynner: “We were there constantly - always! Always a helicopter or Sinatra's plane. And everything was orange: the sofas, the chairs, the carpets. It was Frank's favorite color. It was a compound, so cozy and great. It was a super-modern house. There were bungalows for the guests,so everyone was on his own except when they didn't want to be. So civilized. I sat by the piano-shaped pool while Yul and Frank played golf nonstop. Yul won. Or was it Frank? Fierce competition.

He loved Spaghetti & Meatballs. And Lasagna. And the booze. The boys boozed a bit, you see… They would tell stories, have a few drinks, play the piano and sing. Such fun people. Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Bill and Edie Goetz, us. Frank would sing duets with his records, Yul accompanying him on his guitar. Just another Saturday night.”
