Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com
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.

2 out of 5 stars Poor mastering...everything is loud, lacks dynamic contrast...   August 19, 2008
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.


5 out of 5 stars Not quite his best, but a strong Sinatra collection   August 15, 2008
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.



3 out of 5 stars Excellent Collection, but Where's the Stamp?   August 8, 2008
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.


5 out of 5 stars Francis   July 29, 2008

5 out of 5 stars Nothing but the best   July 28, 2008
The title of this cd says it all. A great collection of hit songs by Frank Sinatra. Something every Sinatra fan should have in their collection! Recommended to all, at a great price.
