Description
Deluxe presentation with comprehensive 20-page booklet + 17 bonus tracks including the album, 'Sinatra and Swinging Brass'. Includes new specially prepared liner notes by Penguin Guide to Jazz writer Brian Morton and by Paris' prestigious Jazz Magazine.
"Sinatra had long since mastered the microphone, which had become his instrument, capable of a full-on roar or a whisper so intimate it seemed to be spoken inside the listener's head. Tackling things like "Nice Work If You Can Get It" and "I Won't Dance" took him back to a kind of repertoire he had mastered two decades before. The youthful sheen hadn't quite left the voice and age hadn't yet darkened it. Basie wasn't the greatest sight-reader and may not have played on all the tracks, but his band knew the score and Sinatra-Basie remains a collaboration of great strength and naturalness." - Penguin Guide To Jazz
