Frank Sinatra With Two Swinging Bands Billy May & Nelson Riddle – Singing And Swinging
Featuring two of the greatest arrangers in popular music, Singing And Swinging pairs Frank Sinatra with the legendary orchestras of Nelson Riddle and Billy May in a superb collection of timeless swing and vocal jazz classics. Showcasing Sinatra during one of the most celebrated periods of his career, this album perfectly captures the effortless style, impeccable phrasing, and charismatic delivery that earned him the title of The Voice.
The first half of the album features the sophisticated, elegant arrangements of Nelson Riddle, whose collaborations with Sinatra produced some of the finest recordings in American popular music. Classics such as I've Got The World On A String, Night And Day, and You Do Something To Me highlight the perfect chemistry between Sinatra's smooth vocals and Riddle's richly orchestrated swing arrangements.
Side B brings the unmistakable energy of Billy May, whose bold brass sections and upbeat tempos provide the ideal backdrop for lively performances including Saturday Night (Is The Loneliest Night Of The Week), Almost Like Being In Love, South Of The Border, and Dancing In The Dark. Together, these legendary conductors present two distinct but equally iconic sides of Sinatra's remarkable artistry.
A must-have for fans of Frank Sinatra, big band, vocal jazz, and traditional pop, Singing And Swinging is a wonderful collection that celebrates one of the greatest vocalists of the twentieth century and the timeless appeal of the Great American Songbook.
