• Part of the just released 60th anniversary box celebrating Sinatra's legendary run at the sands in Las Vegas, Frank's voice is outstanding. Great, great singing. The monologue-- "The Tea Break"--has not aged well, though still occasionally hilarious.

The original Sinatra and Basie is the one Sinatra album I bought. Great stuff. Plenty of other winners in your list. Best thing for me on a rainy day of instrumental music was Harmonia - Deluxe (1975): beautiful and with one tune that reminded me strongly of Eno’s later “King’s Lead Hat”.
