Classic Sinatra Vol.2 - Frank Sinatra

FRANK SINATRA CHRISTMAS ALBUM

Advantages: JINGLE BELLS ALL THE WAY
Disadvantages: NOT SOMETHING I PLAY IN THE SUMMER

. Although the Frank Sinatra Christmas Album has only one CD, there's still 14 classic songs on it which are as follows :- 1.: Jingle Bells 2.: Christmas Song (Merry Christmas To You) 3.: Mistletoe And Holly 4.: I'll Be Home For Christmas (If Only In My Dreams) 5.: Christmas Waltz 6.: Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas 7.: First Noel 8.: Hark The Herald Angels Sing 9.: O Little Town Of Bethlehem 10.: Adeste Fideles 11.: It Came Upon A Midnight Clear 12.: Silent Night 13.: White Christmas 14. The Christmas Waltz. SUMMARY I'm not going to try and make out this is the best Christmas Album of all time but it's certainly got all of Frank Sinatra's classic Christmas songs on it.. I would have no hesitation at all in recommending this CD and I do know that Frank Sinatra is not to everyone's taste ...

Review of Sinatra Christmas Album - Frank Sinatra

Platinum Collection, The - Frank Sinatra

Advantages: It isn't another low budget set of reissues by some cheap no mark label
Disadvantages: Does there have to be any!?

This fantastic collection tracks Frank Sinatra from 1953 up until 1961. These were the years he spent with Captiol Records, the label that picked Sinatra up after he was unashamedly dumped by his previous label. Capitol played a big role in turning Sinatra into what we all know as one of the biggest and most successful recording artists of the 20th Century. This set shows you the pairings of Frank and the likes of arrangers such as Axel Stordahl and Nelson Riddle as well as Billy May. The men partly responsible for the brilliance of songs such as "I'm Walking Behind You" (originally a hit for Eddie Fisher) and "South Of The Border". These CDs take you on a chronological journey through classic tracks such as Come Fly With Me, I've Got You Under My Skin, The Lady Is A Tramp and Pennies From Heaven. Also includes a 20 page booklet! ...

Review of Platinum Collection, The - Frank Sinatra

Economy Class Sinatra

Advantages: Cheap, great value, some superb tracks
Disadvantages: some duff tracks, poor insert

under par but still of higher quality than a lot of live recordings I have heard from other artists. Track 1, this is the classic 'Come fly with me' sung as only Sinatra can sing it. Track 2, 'Begin the beguine' great song but not the best version by a mile. Track 3, 'Dancing in the dark' er a miss I'm afraid Track 4, 'You make me feel so young' I sing along to this one everytime I hear it. Track 5, 'Love me or leave me' Bye Bye Frank Track 6, 'On the sunny side of the street' Bright and breezy easy listening type song. Track 7, 'Blue Skies' Now we are getting in the swing of things Track 8, 'All the way' Another classic from the man Track 9, 'Ghost of a chance' not with this one Frank Track 10, 'Night and day' Passable version Track 11, 'Somebody loves me' OK but not the best track Track 12, 'Just one ...
