Professional Review:
Released to coincide with the tenth anniversary of Frank Sinatra’s passing (May 14, 1998), Nothing But The Best salutes "The Voice" with an essential single-disc compilation of hits. It features 21 legendary songs from "The Chairman Of The Board," plus a previously unissued version of "Body And Soul." The collection is part of an international initiative between the newly created Frank Sinatra Enterprises (FSE), Warner Home Video, MGM Home Entertainment, Turner Classic Movies, and the United States Postal Service to honor Frank Sinatra, whose music and movies had an everlasting impact on popular culture. For a limited time, Nothing But The Best will contain a collectible, commemorative Sinatra stamp with official USPS first-day issue cancellation.

   Summary: Solid CD
Well, it is Frank Sinatra with all of his best hits (though not all of his songs)! What else can I say? You certainly can't satisfy all the complains here about the covering of Sinatra's songs but the list is as good as it can be. If you already have Sinatra, then probably no need to buy this but then this CD is solid as a gift for anyone for almost any occasion. If you don't own Sinatra yet, this is the one to own.

   Summary: Nothing But The Best
Bought this CD for two reasons - I've always liked Frank's music and secondly my daughter and I will be dancing to The Way You Look Tonight at her wedding on 9/13/08. That song is on this CD and we both thought it was appropriate!

   Summary: Poor mastering...everything is loud, lacks dynamic contrast...
I bought this with great anticipation, but I'm very disappointed. It's just loud and bombastic with Frank's voice brought up to compensate - there is very little dynamic contrast or sense of stage space or "air." Maybe this is good for car or ipod listening, but on a high-fi system it's sounds very artificial. Not recommended.

   Summary: Not quite his best, but a strong Sinatra collection
All of the songs on this CD are Sinatra, & a darn good selection, too.

But not original versions, nor the best renditions he ever performed. Some producer made a poor choice, although Frank's voice is still grand & golden.

Still, I ain't complaining--all good, & welcome on the shelf.

Personally, I think "Ring-A-Ding-Ding" is better.Ring-a-Ding Ding!


 Rating 3   Written on August 8, 2008
   Summary: Excellent Collection, but Where's the Stamp?
Although Sinatra's Reprise recordings are often too cheesy for me, this one-disc collection of Sinatra's Reprise years easily rates five stars for the historic songs and brilliant sound quality. However, the collection came without the promised first-day issue of the Sinatra stamp, despite the fact that the packaging indicated the stamp was included. A subsequent attempt to get reparation from Amazon was unsuccessful. In a nutshell, the music rates five stars, but the packaging rates a zero.
