About the Artist
ROBERT DAVI is one of the most recognizable entertainers in the world. As an actor, Davi has been compared to the likes of Humphrey Bogart, Robert Mitchum and Lee Marvin. He has worked with the biggest names in Hollywood, from Marlon Brando to Clint Eastwood, appearing in such movies as Die Hard, Showgirls, The Goonies and considered one of the top three Bond villains of all time in License to Kill. His television credits are just as vast, starting with the hit NBC television series Profiler and continuing with Stargate: Atlantis and most recently Criminal Minds.
Product Description
2011 album from the respected actor and performer. There are actors who can sing, and singers who can act and iconic screen star Robert Davi is known in inner circles as the "singer who can act." Davi, who studied opera as a young man, always intended to make singing his career, but as fate would have it his screen career took flight and there was no looking back. Now after 100 movies with remarkable diversity, hit television credits and his directorial film debut, Davi is returning to his first love, making his major recording debut with a tribute to his mentor the legendary Frank Sinatra.

Caught Robert on the Dennis Miller Show and when they sampled his stuff I thought the entire thing
was a joke - until I realized that it wasn't and he can really, really sing.
Not only that, but Davi is a true throw-back and a guy who obviously reveres Sinatra and the composers
of that era.
This album is playing as I write this, and my wife (a musical theatre major) stuck her head in my office
and said "Wow. He can really hit some notes."
Enjoy.

Robert Davi is astounding on this CD! This is a splendid tribute to the great Frank Sinatra. Davi proves he can croon with the best of them; and I love it. He has a fine sense of timing, a strong command of his repertoire and excellent diction.
All the tracks are wonderful; there's not a dud in the lot. "Day In Day Out" has a swinging flavor to it that provides an auspicious beginning for the album; and other tracks I especially enjoy include the wonderful "Nice and Easy;" the passionate "All the Way;" "I've Got The World On A String;" "Witchcraft;" the melancholy "In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning;" "Nice Work of You Can Get it;" "Summer Wind;" "The Best Is Yet to Come" and "Too Marvelous for Words."
This is a must-have for any fan of Robert Davi; and people who enjoy classic pop vocals will not be disappointed. Robert Davi deserves recognition for this excellent debut album; and if we're lucky he'll release another album soon.

I caught the Robert Davi interview on the Dennis Miller Show the previous week and they discussed Davi's new CD. I was able to download it this week, and I found it very impressive as well as the cover art. Bob did a great job on a lot of the tunes I already knew and intrigued me on some I didn't know. I think he did the Chairman proud, and I hope another CD of Sinatra tunes by Davi will be on the way in the near future. On my iPod I have a playlist title that I borrowed from XM radio called Frank's Place and features the likes of Julie London, Sammy Davis Jr, Dean Martin, and Sinatra himself. Looks like it has a welcomed new regular...Robert Davi!

Davi Sings Sinatra: On the Road to Romance
This performer did a great job of presenting the Sinatra songs. Very enjoyable but one just cannot beat the champion of singers as was Sinatra. Still miss the old boy.
