Rat Pack, The - Frank Sinatra & Dean Martin & Sammy Davis Jr.

Advantages: Very, very enjoyable to listen to.
Disadvantages: Some un-pc comments get made

...I am a huge fan of The Rat Pack and it is with a great sense of fulfilment that I received this CD as the music is not nostalgic to listen to but the banter between Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr and Frank Sinatra is something from another time completely. The recording was made in November 1962, where the threesome played the Villa Venice in Chicago and although not all the soundtrack is from one particular night as the recording was taken from the whole week of performances, you get the idea that they were enjoying themselves on stage. Backed up by a big band orchestra it gives the sound of the sixties that was truly unique to these three artists. The breakdown on the disc is as follows?? 1. Fanfare Introduction 2. Medley - Dean Martin 3. I Left My Heart in San Francisco - Dean Martin 4. I'm Gonna Sit Right down... Read review

Advantages: It does not have frank sinatra
Disadvantages: It is not about christ mas

...I like sammy daves jr he is black. He is a jew and he is good. He sings his best songs like candy man and black magic and people tree.

I like singing but I am not good at singing so I just move my mouth like candy man candy man who can make the sun shine candy man "I said" but did not say. I do not like the song moving up so I do not sing that with sammy daves jr and I try to not listen when it is on but I can not close my ears like my eyes. Sammy daves jr has funny eyes but it is not scary I think he is attarctive a bit. I like the singing most about this cd but "diane... Read review

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

...INTRO Why is it every Christmas I find myself getting a Frank Sinatra craze (am I the only one ?). Is it because Frank Sinatra is one of the best singers of all time or is it the fact I love to sing along with his catchy lyrics maybe so, but did you know that Frank Sinatra was once called quote: "The Voice" because there's never been a better voice for a microphone than his. As a big fan of Frank Sinatra I have more than a few of his CD's but there's only one that will always find its way to the top of the pile in my collection around this time of year,and that's the Frank Sinatra Christmas Album. FRANK SINATRA Real name Francis Albert Sinatra was born in 1915. He started out as a saloon singer and eventually became a member of a band called The Hoboken. In 1942 his real career started as he became a solo Singer who found fame... Read review
