In many cases, Frank covered recordings debuted by other artists. These included songs like "Party Doll", "Earth Angel" and "The Great Pretender". In addition to his solo work, Frank also had a brief stint as the lead singer of the Sammy Kaye orchestra.
Although his hit recording career did not lead to permanent stardom, Frank continued performing.

He retired from performing due to illness, and returned to New York City, but continued to live independently. Frank died of natural causes, aged 86 on December 2, 2016.
