Biography

Only Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson can rival Frank Sinatra for biggest-selling solo artist of all time. His jazz-influenced singing remained internationally renowned whatever whims, fashions or innovations were introduced by new generations. In a solo career that included over 70 albums and hundreds of singles, from the late-30s until the mid-90s, Sinatra remained universally loved even as… Read more in Amazon's Frank Sinatra Store

By Dr. H. A. Jones TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Audio CD
This is a wistful CD of 12 tracks, five of which are tunes by Irving Berlin, recorded in 1962 for the Reprise label. The Berlin tracks include the cathartic `When I lost you' that Berlin composed in 1912 after losing his wife Dorothy Goetz of just five months. It is such a contrast to the rousing Alexander's Ragtime Band, Berlin's first hit composed only the previous year. The other Berlin numbers are `What'll I do?', `Remember', `The song is ended' and the title track `All alone', all of similar mood to `When I lost you'. From these, you'll get a feel for the overall mood of this CD, which nonetheless is sympathetically sung by Sinatra and beautifully backed by the swooping strings of the Gordon Jenkins orchestra. The mood is like that of the other Sinatra/Jenkins collaborations - No One Cares and Where Are You? This is not one for fans of the up-tempo swinging Sinatra but rather the reflective lover facing his new-found solitude.

A Pleasant Surprise 11 Mar 2011
Format:Audio CD
This Sinatra album made no impact at all when it was first issued in Britain and I had always assumed that this was because it wasn't much good. Having just purchased a copy and listened to it, I realised how wrong my assumptions were. 'All Alone' is an excellent selection of songs, beautifully sung by Sinatra with great arrangements by Gordon Jenkins. If you are a Sinatra fan, this album is well worth buying.

A DRAMATIC AND MELANCHOLY MASTERPIECE 22 Nov 2001
By Stephan Mayer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
This is perhaps one of Frank's and Gordie's most underrated albums. It is better than any of their work at CAPITOL records as Sinatra's voice on this album is fuller and richer than on the CAPITOL albums.

The arrangements are superb and sould extremely lush; Frank probably had Gordie get a large orchestra as he very seldom spared any expense on REPRISE albums. I also like the perfect amount of reverb on Frank and the orchestra; overall the sound is very good.

Some of the waltzes do not have extremely deep lyrics and may sound a bit corny or old fashioned but Sinatra and Gordie literally squeeze every bit of emotion out of them and turn them into masterpieces. The ultimate cut on this album is REMEMBER. Just look at what Sinatra and Jenkins do with this song containing relatively simple lyrics - they turn into a dramtic and sad story. Only Frank could do that.

Why did the album only hit 25 on the BILLBOARD charts? Well, probably it was overshadowed by SINATRA AND STRINGS which is a bit more modern sounding but does not have the extreme sadness of this one. If Sinatra would have only waited to release this one..........

SHAME on Nancy Sinatra for deleting this one from the US REPRISE catalog.

A Masterful Collection of Ballads 6 Oct 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
This CD is nothing short of a masterpiece. Sinatra is in top Vocal Form as once again he guides us through the sorrows of lost loves,hopes & dreams. He doesn't just sing the music, he sings the words! Words by master songcrafter Irving Berlin are embellished by Sinatra's full emotional range and delivered expertly to the listener with lush Arrangements by Gordon Jenkins. My favorite cut is "Oh How I Miss You Tonight".The bonus Track "Come Waltz With Me" was originally intended to be the title of this 3/4 time collection. Don't Miss This One!

Merely More Perfection 13 July 2003
By Samuel Chell - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Somehow this one never caught my attention until now. I suspect I may not be all alone in being unaware of the existence of this neglected masterpiece. Its contemporary generation, on the cusp of the Beatles revolution, would undoubtedly be unimpressed if not put off by a program of 1920's sentimental favorites; an older generation, on the other hand, would balk at the songs of their youth not performed at a lilting, sing-along tempo.

All twelve tunes are waltzes, but the combination of Jenkins' rich orchestral palette and Sinatra's deliberative, deeply meditative readings all but erases consciousness of 3/4 meter. Sinatra sings not just of the past but of the tragic sense of time passing and the impossibility of reclaiming what is over except through art. The 1920s and 30s produced much popular material of undeniable melodramatic sentiment, and Sinatra mines this vein to the fullest, even in the face of a record-buying public that, especially during the 60s and 70s, preferred denial of the past and living in a knife-edge present.

This program is even more difficult to handle in a single session than "Only the Lonely" and "September of My Years," but that doesn't make it any less indispensable. Jenkins' arrangements might justify charges of over-ripeness for any singer other than Sinatra (he even throws in a soprano voice on "All Alone" and "The Melody Lingers On"). For the Master Storyteller, the settings serve as foils to unflinching, soul-searching, achingly beautiful, introspective journeys. Even "I lost the gladness that turned into sadness" is a phrase that acquires depth and resonance as Sinatra tells it.

Let's hope this conceptual gem, already consigned to Japanese exile, survives the parting out and chop-shop treatment to which Nancy and her fellow executors seem prone.
