Comment:

Volume one of a two-part series; requested by Pam Steele months ago. The discs focus primarily on his Capitol output from the 50's and branch into a bit of his 60's Reprise stuff. Say what you will about him as a(n) (in)human being, Ol' Blue Eyes could really turn a melodic phrase in his day. As a last note, some of my favorite Sinatra records--"No One Cares", "Where Are You?" and "Close to You", in particular--were short-shrifted in terms of the quantity of songs used due to the limitations imposed by the "thematic" feel of those albums.

Oh yeah, the Chairman of the Board is # 1 for me. My fave is one I spun all the time when I was about 6 because me mum bought it for me out of the "bag o singles" bin at the 5 and dime: French Foreign Legion. Probably a Bside, but I forget.

Question: did he ever do a version of On the Street Where You Live? I've devoted an admittedly small amount of energy looking, but have not found.
