As an Italian who grew up just outside of Chicago Mr. Sinatra is a sound that's been with me my whole life. You do hear his life within each song. He was a wonderful interpreter. He also was very in tune when it came to choosing whom to work with. His pairings with Nelson Riddle are wonderful. The Basie record is also great. I'm going to see my Mom for Mother's Day, I think I'll raid her record collection. It's been a while since I've heard "In the Wee Small Hours."
A side note on Linda Rondstadt and George Massenburg. In a Mix interview Ms. Rondstadt mentioned that there is a U67 the GM uses to record her that he has willed to her.
