Simply put, this is yet another Frank Sinatra compilation from his earliest years at Columbia, with and without Tommy Dorsey. The material showcases Ol' Blue Eyes as something of a teen idol rather than as the great jazz and standard stylist he would become.

The sound in this set is decent if not overly warm or immediate, the price point is fine, and the notes are rudimentary. Simply put, if you are among the hardcore legions of Sinatra fans, you already have everything here.
