Viridian....+1 on Sinatra. I never get tired of his voice, a real musical instrument and he was a great musician. Deano, I like but not much of a musician IMO and Dean tends to sing in a schmaltzy way.

Unlike Diana Krall, Sinatra gets swing and his timing is impeccable. Probably his most significant talent. Very few get it. Robbie Williams has it too. Swing while your winning is a good effort! Michael Buble just looks cute but never had it and never would have gone anywhere without auto-tune. Freddie Mercury has it too. I can’t describe this kind of incredible talent. I don’t think it can be taught. I can only recognize it instantly when heard. The gulf between people like Sinatra, Freddie Mercury and others is bigger than the ocean is wide. What you don’t play or say is just as important or more important than what you do play or say. |
I remember dialog from futuristic TV series "Orville": - There was a contest, long time ago on planet Earth, called American Idol, to find out who sings the best. - But, why??? - These were dark times. Each of mentioned singers is so different and some of them like Sinatra are only interpreters while others are composing as well. Sinatra and Dean Martin are wonderful singers in different flavors. Enjoy them both instead of comparing. |
His voice and the sound quality here is excellent. Dean is right on the microphone, accompaniment is in the background. https://store.acousticsounds.com/d/98050/Dean_Martin-Dream_With_Dean_-_The_Intimate_Dean_Martin-Hybr... |
