Foreign Affair is a 1958 album by Frankie Laine with the orchestra of Michel Legrand.[1] High Fidelity commented that "Frankie Laine throbs his breathy way through an international potpourri in five languages — all marked with a heavy American accent." The album was followed by a second collaboration with Legrand the next year, Reunion in Rhythm.[2]
