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
CD Description
Sinatra's years on the Capitol label (1953-60) were great years. His voice had matured into a powerful and poignant instrument; his sense of swing was infallible; and he was blessed with an innovative and sophisticated arranger, Nelson Riddle, whose charts fit Sinatra like a beautiful suit.
Thisone-disc compilation of 20 songs includes many classics: "I've Got You Under My Skin", "You Make Me Feel So Young", "The Lady Is a Tramp", In The Wee Small Hours of the Morning", and "One For My Baby (And One More For the Road)". The packaging is attractive (with some great photos of Sinatra) and the digital re-mastering was done right.
Also included areupdated versions of songs Sinatra sang in his earlier years("Oh! Look At Me Now", and "Night and Day"). While this CD is not all-inclusive--some of the more melancholy songs of these years are omitted--it's a collection that can be listened to again and again.
