What are the essential Frank Sinatra albums to collect?
After you have tested the Sinatra sound, possibly using the Top Ten Album listings, you are likely to get the bug and desire to collect other available Sinatra compact discs. A “basic” library for any budding Sinatra fan would include material from each of the recording eras of Sinatra. This can be categorized into the six key areas (work with Harry James, with Tommy Dorsey, Columbia, Capitol, Reprise, Return to Capitol). To help with your collecting efforts, this listing documents the key CD releases from which to make your selections. However, we know you will be getting all of these — it’s just a matter of time.
