Sinatra suggestions


Newbie poster here on the forums, but been a lurker since joining the A'gon a couple years ago.

I'm a big fan of 70s & 80s rock, but trying to broaden my musical tastes. I heard some Sinatra recently at a wedding reception that I really liked, but have no idea what the songs/albums were. I'm looking for album suggestions that have more lively tunes, I like the songs with a lot of horns.

I recently bought a MFSL copy of "Nice 'n Easy". The title track is really appealing, and the rest is good too but a tad slow for my taste. I have young kids, so when I get still and the music is slow, I tend to fall asleep. I've thought about getting "Live at the Sands", but figured I might first ask for advice from the folks on the forums. Thanks for any recommendations.

Coffe2, great call on the Ella stuff as a compliment to Frank. The "Sings the Songbooks.." by Ella are all sublime. I have been very impressed by the new pressings on heavy vinyl, they actually sound better than any of the very good older pressings I have found.
I was just listening to Ella Fitzgerald sings the Cole Porter Songbook on vinyl 2 nites ago. Wonderful music! Hard to believe it was recorded when I was 3 yrs old! I own close to a dozen Sinatra records and they're all Capitol's. His later recordings on Reprise don't do it for me. If I had only one to choose from, it would definetly be Live at the Sands. Sinatra at his peak arranged by Quincy Jones, playing with the Count Basie Orchestra in a Las Vegas nightclub. Ring-a-ding ding indeed!!
I know it's asking a lot but trust me on this one: "Sinatra Reprise The very Good Years" - it's what you want.
Live in Paris.
The Voice, on Classic Records.
The Voice of Frank Sinatra, Columbia 1949 - pretty special to me!
