singer's vast back-catalogue for a remarkable two-CD set. Sinatra was one of the greatest voices of his--or any--generation, and for the most part, these songs are some of Old Blue Eyes' finest works: among the best are "Come Fly with Me", "Lady Is a Tramp" and "I Get a Kick out of You". But with such an immense and classic back-catalogue of songs to choose from, it's a shame that the compilers felt it necessary to add so much cheese: "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown" and "Mrs Robinson", for example, don't do Sinatra, the songs, or the listener any justice. Still, that's why CD players have "skip" buttons. --Robert Burrow

Without a doubt, we all know that everyone enjoys listening to Frank Sinatra. He is one of the, if not the most famous and well recognised names in Jazz music.
This CD is brilliant, it has all of his famous hits spread between the 2 CD's including My Way, I get a kick outa you, fly me to the moon, under my skin and mack the knife. It does miss the track somewhere beyond the sea but the rest of the songs make up for it by far.
When some people pay over £10's for an album with 12 tracks on, only because 2 or 3 of their favourite songs are on there and you compare it to this album, there is no comparison. In total you are paying for 46 great tracks including covers of other great songs. eg, Yesterday by The Beatles and Mrs. Robinson by Simon and Garfunkel.
I am a very big fan of Frank and I cannot encourage you enough to buy this CD. I bought it for around £6.99 from a virgin megastore, but its easy to buy from anywhere.

Advantages: So many lush songs Disadvantages: So little time to enjoy them!
If you want just one Sinatra CD this is it!
Superbly superb!
All excellent quality recordings, Frank at his best, many many of the all time faves, hard not to be impressed by this offering even if you don't like him!
So many gr8 backings, so many moods. I'm certainly not his number 1 fan but this is hard to ignore, really brings a vitality to these songs.
Love and marriage, go together like a horse and carriage...
Frank leaves you starstruck and spellbound: you'll soon be hunting out his other albums! Plays well in surround sound, I enjoy this in the car on a long journey. There's a lot of songs so it's good value for money and the quality is A1*+ you won't buy better.
As a side issue "donf", I'm not doing this to get paid, I don't care about money and if you want to know, I have LOST my copy so I can't rate this song ...

Album Notes
Arranged and conducted by Don Costa. Arranger Don Costa's style, simultaneously modern and classic, was the sparkplug of Sinatra's late-'60s/early '70s releases, and MY WAY is the album that raised the bar for the recordings that followed. Throughout, Sinatra shows off so many different sides of his talent that it's hard to get past the admiration of his diversity, beyond which there's a whole separate level of enjoyment to be had in the individual performances. On Ray Charles's "Hallelujah, I Love Her So" he's eminently soulful and swinging. He plumbs the depths of his soul for the bittersweet touch of "Yesterday" and Jacques Brel's "If You Go Away." Sinatra delivers his manifesto on the epic title track, in which he looks back on a life of determined individualism with both pride and a harsh sense of reality.
