This is the new pressing, hot off the press: Sinatra At The Sands with The Count Basie Orchestra, arranged by Quincy Jones.
On this record Sinatra's art comes out rather nicely. Maybe even more than just being a vocal talent, he was a really great entertainer. Like when goofing around with the sax player on "I've Got A Crush On You". I don't perceive his vocal technique being particularly sophisticated, but I think he is great fun to listen to.
He was even more fun when together with Dino, with the gentlemen exchanging jabs like: "I spill more Whiskey than you drink" (Dean Martin).
