Ya got your Columbia, Capitol and Reprise boxed sets, but there remains one big chunk of the Chairman’s career to come out on CD—the work he did in nearly 50 films over 25 years of screen appearances. So better make room on the bookshelf, baby, ’cause nearly all of these 160 tracks have never been on CD, and a bunch of ’em never even on vinyl! Here are the original film versions of such Sinatra standards as "Night and Day," "All or Nothing at All," "Time after Time," "New York, New York," "On the Town," "All of Me," "From Here to Eternity," "Three Coins in the Fountain," "Someone to Watch over Me," "One for My Baby," "Young at Heart," "(Love Is) The Tender Trap," "Guys and Dolls," "Chicago (That Toddlin’ Town)," "All the Way," "The Lady Is a Tramp," "High Hopes," "I Love Paris," "Come Blow Your Horn," "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" and "My Kind of Town", many (because of the film studios’ recording innovations) in stereo for the first time, taken from films, newsreels and radio/TV spots released by Paramount, RKO, MGM, Columbia, Hearst, Warner Bros., Universal, United Artists, UA/Capitol and Goldwyn from 1940 to 1964. And the rarities are juicy—a 1947 radio interview for "The Kissing Bandit," 1951 promos/spots for "Meet Danny Wilson", a 1953 Sinatra/Donna Reed interview for "From Here to Eternity," Lucky Strike promo spots and more! It’s taken a full seven years to pull all this material together, so the packaging is of keepsake quality, featuring a fabric-wrapped box containing a deluxe book with notes by Sinatra scholars Didier C. Deutsch and Scott Allen Nollen, musician Michael Feinstein and author Will Friedwald, plus reproductions of film stills, behind-the-scenes photos, movie posters and other memorabilia. Six CDs that chart the course of not just Frank’s career, but also the evolution of pop music and the film musical. Monumental. Release date: June 4.
