CD Description
Over 40 digitally remastered tracks 'Three Original Albums' takes you through a golden period in Frank Sinatra's recording career encompassing three of his best studio albums; 'Songs For Swingin' Lovers', 'Song For Young Lovers' and 'In The Wee Small Hours'. Disc 1's Song's For Swingin' Lovers with its upbeat tone included a number of popular hits such as 'I've Got You Under My Skin' and 'You Make Me Feel So Young' and is considered to have defined the Great American Songbook'. Disc 2's 'Songs For Young Lovers' is the earliest album of this set and includes 'Like Someone In Love', 'I Get A Kick Out Of You' and 'My Funny Valentine'. Notably this album was chosen by Library Of Congress to be added to the National Recording Registry as a recognised landmark recording. Disc 3 includes 'In The Wee Small Hours' a late night concept album. As a full length album rather than a collection of individual songs there is an intentionally downbeat feel with highlights including maudlin versions of 'Mood Indigo'and 'I Get Along Without You Very Well'. This is a superb chance to experience the many moods and talents of Frank Sinatra. Disc 1 1. You Make Me Feel So Young 2. It Happened In Monterey 3. You re Getting To Be A Habit 4.

'Songs for Young Lovers'.
'Songs for Swinging Lovers'.
'In the Wee Small Hours'.
Three knock-out mid-fifties albums.
51 Tracks (On My Pressing at least...Amazon's track
listing for 'In the Wee Small Hours' is slightly variant
...but hey, for less than a fiver I'm not going to be picky!)
Highlights ? Crikey there's so many I hardly know where to start!
"It Happened In Monterey"; "A Foggy Day (In London Town)";
"It Worries Me"; "Can't We Be Friends?"; "I'll Be Around".
(Just wait until you hear that dangerously sustained
"...terrifffffffffffff...icaly too" in the second verse
of "I Get A Kick Out Of You" !!)
All definative performances. Confirmation, if ever there needed
to be, that Mr Sinatra was and remains one of the greatest
interpreters of some of the most marvelous songs ever written.
The CD transfers are warm, faithful and of very good quality.
Listening to "Ill Wind" right now, a fine whiskey by my side
and for a few short minutes this crazy world feels just a little
better than it did when I read my newspaper this morning.
Indispensible.

Running times CD1 62 minutes, CD2 63 minutes and CD3 63 minutes. This excellent Not Now release is bound to do well offering 3 albums and bonus tracks too. There is also definitive Nelson Riddle on the set and that will surely prove another selling point and I have not even mentioned the value of the set. This set covers a period of over 10 years because the songs on The Voice date from 1945 to 1952 with arrangements by Alex Stordahl and those of you who remember the original will know that it was a 78rpm album and then an early 33rpm release only becoming a full 12 inch version in 1955.Fine quality sound too. The liner includes full recording information for the set and there are 3 excellent photographs beneath the CDs. Liner notes are from Michael Heatley. A must for both collector and those wishing to replace worn out LPs at a keen price!

OLd Blue Eyes is Back
It's a great album from one of Sinatra's best eras. I still have the original albums of Vinyl but have lost the means of playing them - these are just as good.

Semi legit "out of copyright" release...why bother?
This is a typical "out of copyright in the UK" (over 50 years old) release. Pick a few old albums, master them indiscriminately, package them with some mediocre new artwork, and... Read more

Good
Frank Sinatra old songs, but some of the best missing.
The quality of the CD is impressive as it gives the impression of listening to LPs.
Good overall and cheap.
