 “L.A. Is My Lady” Recording Session (Meeting Frank Sinatra)

Date assessed by the facts that the shirt that Quincy wears (red shirt with black elephant on front) during Michael’s meeting with Sinatra is shown only during the recording of “Until the Real Thing Comes Along” and “After You’ve Gone”, (shown in the documentary “Portrait of an Album”) and the recording date for those songs is April 13, 1984 (archived)
