Unbelieveable. These are the original arrangements! I'm a huge fan of Frank's music, especially the versions done on Frank's own label (Reprise). This is the best you will ever hear these fabulous arrangements played - both from an orchastra performance and sound engineering standpoint. Then add to that sheer vocal perfection from Steve. His voice is in outstanding shape - better than ever - and just the right vocal phrasing for the great songs. "Where or When" I vote the best, but everyone is a winner. Buy this album! And Steve - make another one please!

This Cd is a must! Steve Lawrences phrasing is like Frank's yet it"s not..it's Steve Lawrence all the way. A perfect blend of two great talents! The arrangements are the best of the Sinatra era. Quincy Jones..Nelson Riddle..Don Costa. It doesn't get much better then that! It's almost like Frank is inside of Steve belting outthe finest songs in the Sinatra style. Warning ..better purchase two copies...you'll wear this one out.! I could not pick a favorite track..IMPOSSIBLE!! Steve Lawrence Sings Sinatra. What an understatment!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another fine tribute to the Chairman..., February 8, 2003

It was great to hear Steve Lawrence's tribute to the man and his music (of course, I'm speaking of Francis Albert Sinatra).

Steve chose wisely from the creme de la creme of Sinatra's songbook (adapting the original arrangements to his voice), and he is ably supported by the best studio musicians in Hollywood, as well as one of the best engineers in the business (Al Schmitt). He also made this project somewhat of a family affair by having his talented son, David, conduct the orchestra.

This is one singer who has been away from the recording studio far too long!!!
