Description
Along with Ella Fitzgerald's 'Song Books' set this is a definitive release of a masterful collection and covers Sinatra's 50s Capitol material prior to his own Reprise label. It is this music that turned him from a declining light popular singer into musical giant, where he explored emotion and sensitivity on classic songs that are exquisitely arranged by the world's best (Nelson Riddle, Billy May etc) and more subtle than myth tells us about Sinatra. This collection brings together the concept albums such as 'Songs For Swinging Lovers', 'Come Dance With Me' and 'In The Wee Small Hours' with collections of rare songs and singles on their own discs. The sound quality is superb and each album is definitive and becomes part of your life. Often superlatives are thrown around but to invest the money and time to appreciate this music really does deserve a genuine five star rating. This is in effect a pinnacle of popular music shared by relatively few. There is a similar set in the US but this misses the extra discs and arguably isn't as good in sound quality. It does have the instrumental album Sinatra conducted but this is comparatively superfluous next to the inclusions here.
