This is Sinatra as an artist finally coming into full maturity and musical-intellectual strength. On these recordings he has reached his fullest capacity for depth and breadth in vocal tonality and emotional expression. He is sincere, both powerful and sensitive and purely original in artistry and performer persona. The Don Costa arrangements suit the evolved Sinatra so much as to become his signature sound--elegant, lush, broad and tall yet lithe and supple when necessary. There was the ubiquitous early swing band sound for Frank, but here it is the timeless marriage and evolution of Swing and Symphonic. This is a desert island long player record.
