Short Info
“Love and Marriage” was introduced by Frank Sinatra in the 1955 television production of Thornton Wilder’s Our Town that aired on Producers’ Showcase. Sinatra went on to record two versions of the song. The first was recorded for Capitol Records on August 15, 1955, released on the 1956 album This Is Sinatra!, and became a major chart hit. (A competing version by Dinah Shore also achieved popularity.) The second version was recorded for the Reprise Records album A Man and His Music on October 11, 1965. The Capitol version was later used as the theme song for the long-running 1987–97 Fox TV sitcom Married… with Children.
