Frank Sinatra - Sinatra At The Sands

180-gram gatefold double LP

Continuing Frank Sinatra's centennial year celebration, Universal Music Enterprises presents  Frank Sinatra in Sinatra At The Sands. The album is one of six more classic Sinatra albums on audiophile-quality 180-gram vinyl LP with faithfully replicated album art.

The Top 10 1966 double album Sinatra At The Sands was conducted and arranged by Quincy Jones. It was Sinatra's first commercially released concert album and is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year.

"In many ways, Sinatra at the Sands is the definitive portrait of Frank Sinatra in the '60s. Recorded in April of 1966, At the Sands is the first commercially released live Frank Sinatra album, recorded at a relaxed Las Vegas club show. For these dates at the Sands, Sinatra worked with Count Basie and his orchestra, which was conducted by Quincy Jones. Like any of his concerts, the material was fairly predictable, with his standard show numbers punctuated by some nice surprises. Throughout the show, Sinatra is in fine voice, turning in a particularly affecting version of "Angel Eyes." He is also in fine humor, constantly joking with the audience and the band, as well as delivering an entertaining, if rambling, monologue halfway through the album. Basie and the orchestra are swinging and dynamic, inspiring a textured, dramatic, and thoroughly enjoyable performance from Sinatra." — AllMusic
