I don’t like big band jazz, nor am I a big fan of Sinatra – but this LP has great production and captures well the atmosphere of the occasion.
Good albums there, Barry. I'm not familiar with that Miles Davis one...will listen tonight.
I'm no Sinatra fan either, but much to my surprise, my daughters developed a liking for his music, and that while still in their teens. Go figure! From indie to a crooner...gotta love that!
Here in Toronto we are very lucky to have a 24/7 local jazz FM radio station, 91.1 (Jazz.fm on the web if you want to stream live). Every Saturday they broadcast Jamie Cullum's BBC 2 show which I enjoy listening to. Well this weekend Cullum played this track, Nancy Wilson singing Ode to Billie Joe, which I just loved:

Before he played it, he noted that the arrangement was outstanding, and I would have to agree. The building tension and angst makes for a terrific piece of music.
