Seduction: Sinatra Sings Of Love [Digipak]

Performer: Frank Sinatra
Distributor: WEA (Distributor)

Notes: SEDUCTION: SINATRA SINGS OF LOVE is a handsomely packaged, effortlessly romantic anthology of favorite love songs from throughout Frank Sinatra's career. The primary focus is on the '50s and '60s Capitol and Reprise eras, after the skinny teen idol from Hoboken had grown up, maturing first into a nearly tragic figure of love lost and then into the devil-may-care leader of the Rat Pack. But crucially, these 22 tracks were chosen to showcase not Sinatra the mythic figure, but Sinatra the truly gifted jazz and pop singer. Every song here is a highlight, but the definitive versions of standards like "They Can't Take That Away From Me," "I Get A Kick Out of You," and "I've Got You Under My Skin" reveal what a treasure Frank Sinatra was. SEDUCTION: SINATRA SINGS OF LOVE was also released in three other formats: a "deluxe" two-disc set, an "ultimate" three-disc set, and a CD/DVD combo.

Mojo (Publisher) (p.120) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[The songs] are among his most potent amorous exhortations....Sinatra's definitive workings of standards like 'Young At Heart,' 'Witchcraft,' 'Some Enchanted Evening' and 'That's All' still have the desired effect..."

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.
