Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Few would argue that Frank Sinatra was one of the greatest popular singers of the 20th Century. His voice had distinct power and majesty, whether he was belting out a swinging dance number or softly crooning a tender ballad. When he was at his height, no one could touch him, and the songs collected on Classic Sinatra showcase the range of his talent. Recorded during his memorable run for Capitol Records in the 1950s, the songs here are more than just his best, they're often the definitive recordings: "I Get A Kick Out Of You", "Young At Heart", "Witchcraft", "The Lady Is A Tramp", "In The Wee Small Hours", "I've Got You Under My Skin". Like almost everything Sinatra recorded during this period, there isn't a dud to be found here, which makes Classic Sinatra a perfect introduction to the work of this truly great talent. --Robert Burrow

fantastic! 28 Feb 2001
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
i cant recommend this album highly enough. I have always admired Sinatra from afar, but never listened to his original recordings...i have been awestruck by the beauty of the songs, the superb arrangements, the clarity of the music, and of course franks voice (just listen to 'One More For My Baby', this version must be the best blues song ever)..absolutly wonderful from start to finish.

Nice 'N' Easy 13 Jan 2003
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
This certainly is classic Sinatra. Twenty of his best cuts from those Capitol years are here in this terriffically remastered CD, a Nice N' Easy feel being the overall theme. Some great ballads like "In the Wee Small Hours" and "One More for My Baby" are scattered throughout, but mainly this is a confident and swingin' Sinatra at the top of his game. This whole thing just leaves us feeling good, and a little in awe of Sinatra's greatness.

If you have a lot of Sinatra's stuff, as most people do, this is a nice addition, and if you really aren't familiar with what all the fuss was about, this is definitely the one to get. A good twentysomething friend of mine recently bought this after listening to me chide him because he didn't own any Sinatra, or really know much about popular music. You can occasionally make out that tune he's singing as "It Happened in Montery", his favorite cut. Any fan could go on all day talking about these wonderful Sinatra classics, but better just to buy it and see for yourself.

Frank's "Only the Lonely" concept album showed us the darker side of love and romance, but for the most part, this collection of 50's classics are either melancholy or swingin.' It's about the romantic chase (Come Dance With Me), and the sheer adrenaline rush (Come Fly With Me) of falling in love. Fairy tales can come true, it could happen to you, if your "Young at Heart", which is just how you'll feel after listening to these true Sinatra classics.

Buy this one today. It might just seem like "Witchcraft" as this collection gets "Under Your Skin", and you find yourself playing it "Night and Day", not for a few cuts, but "All the Way" through. Thought you weren't a Sinatra fan, huh? "Oh Look at You Now!"

This CD shows how well old recordings can be remastered when some effort is put in. All the tracks sound just like they were recorded this year - and of course the songs are Sinatra at his best. If you've ever bought one of the budget Sinatra CD's and not been too impressed - this should change your mind!
