Sinatra question


I was listening to a Sinatra (very early years) special on the radio a few days ago, but couldn't listen to the whole show. His voice back in the 40s and as early as the late 30s with Harry James, was drop dead the best he ever sounded to me. I'm looking for recommendations on Sinatra pre 1950. thanks in advance. peace, warren :)

Try this one Warrenh. Harry James and his Orchestra featuring Frank Sinatra the complete recordings 1939. columbia/legacy ck-66377. Would any titles on vinyl help you out? I didn't see a TT listed on your system.
Hello- Just wondering if there are any Sinatra CD's with outstanding sound quality.Thanks Kevin
Grant, I just ordered your recommendation on Ebay. I'll let you know. I wonder how it is different than vegasears? will let you know? Yours is a 2 disc and his a 4. Could one be more comprehensive of the time?
According to the liner notes from this three disc vinyl collection I'm holding Sinatra parted ways with Harry James in late 39 and did some sessions with Tommy Dorsey. These sessions were recorded from Feb. 1940 to July 1942 and are called the The Tommy Dorsey/Frank Sinatra Sessions. I don't know if it is available on CD or the sound quality because my set is still sealed. It does say they used the Original masters for the set but on some hard to track down songs they just used copies of 78's from collectors. Hope this helps you out.

it wasn't until sinatra joined capitol records, that he was able to have a say in what and how he recorded. capitol records was the first 'artist label. he later founded reprise with the same m.o.........all sinatra stuff is great, but '60 to '70....thats the real deal
