Why Sinatra???

Streaming Jazz Standards this mourning,heavily peppered with Sinatra & Dean'o & for the life of me I do not understand why Dean Martin isn't considered the voice of the rat pak..How can anyone with an ear prefer Sinatra's voice over Dean'o?

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.

Frank Sinatra is like Tom Cruise. I'm tired of that guy being in so many movies. Why is that guy in so many movies? Uh, talent.
