Description:
This 2 CD set focuses on the nine year period 1945 53, from which 51 great vocal performances have been drawn. These were mainly the Axel Stordahl years, when Sinatra poured out a wonderful flow of definitive interpretations of great standards "Where Or When, All The Things You Are," "Begin The Beguine". With the '50s we enter the Nelson Riddle years and he directs 11 tracks such as the immortal "My Funny Valentine," "Young At Heart" and "Three Coins In The Fountain." |
