Performer: Frank Sinatra
Distributor: Sony Music Distribution ( Notes: This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Legacy Recordings Playlist series finds the label working with the artist to produce the perfect career retrospective with an eye on both hit singles and fan-favorite lesser known tracks. The eco-friendly set includes 100% post-consumer recycled packaging and a disc painstakingly assembled to include the artist's most definitive songs. PLAYLIST: THE VERY BEST OF FRANK SINATRA essentially boils down the early years of Ol' Blue Eyes to 14 stunners, including "All of Me" and "Night and Day." While all the performances are also available on the four-disc box A VOICE IN TIME (1939-1952), this playlist provides an excellent single-disc sampling of Sinatra's recordings with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra and his Columbia singles.
An icon of American music, Frank Sinatra defined sophisticated pop singing of the post-war era and spent more than 50 years in the limelight. After formative stints with Harry James, Tommy Dorsey, and others, Sinatra shot to worldwide fame through hit records and Hollywood movies. His hip, laid-back delivery defined cool, yet he also had a down-to-earth manner that connected easily with audiences. Ups and downs would follow him throughout his career--the details of his private life were not always fit for public consumption--but right up till the end, every comeback strengthened the intense loyalty of his fans.
