Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0093624694724 Format: Live, Original recording remastered Label: Warner Bros / Wea Manufacturer: Warner Bros / Wea MPN: 46947 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Warner Bros / Wea Release Date: May 26, 1998 Studio: Warner Bros / Wea Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Pop this on, close your eyes, and you'll be instantly transported back to the Vegas of 1966. The Sands Hotel was still the "class joint" where Sinatra and his Rat Pack buddies partied, held court, and occasionally even performed. This priceless document (Sinatra's first official live album) captures the Chairman of the Board in performance mode, ably supported by conductor-arranger Quincy Jones and Count Basie and his Orchestra.

Essential. --Dan Epstein Average Rating:

From "Cannon" introducing Frank to the selection of songs to the digitally re mastered versions.... a perfect compilation.... J Rating: - You feel like you're there!I listen to this CD almost every day, especially when I need to escape from my current reality. That says a lot because I HATE it when things are overplayed, even if I love them in the beginning. This CD, for me, can be summed up in one word: FUN. Just pop this in the player, sit down with a Jack Daniel's on the rocks (or whatever your poision of choice is) close your eyes, and picture Sinatra on stage, right in front of you. You can hear glasses tinkling, people murmuring, ...
