Though this doesn't mention the 60th Anniversary Edition, though that's a new mix so one could argue it's something else. - Edited 3 months ago

One of my Sinatra favs. I’m not a big fan of DMM, but this is a wonderful, really good sounding pressing. - Beautiful sounding record except for one song. And that song is A lonesome old town which was originally in mono on the original recording. However it still sounds very good when not comparing it to the rest of the songs on here. This record also sounds very close to the quality of my 1984 box set volume.
- Edited 10 months agoSounds great. Heavy vinyl, my copy has some imperfections due to use over the years but this pressing was definitely well done
- Superb. Vinyl is completely silent. Sound quality is excellent and musically, well this is peak Sinatra for me.
Excellent pressing in every way. - Superb package. Great to have both the mono and stereo versions in one package. Both versions have their charms

Stellar-sounding LP, with astounding clarity & terrifically deeeeeeeep bass, in particular the bass-drum. Frank's voice renders beautifully & the whole orchestra is phenomenally reproduced.- Edited 2 years agoReally great sounding 70’s repress. Pressed on dead quiet translucent vinyl. Nice yellow Capitol label too! Brings Frank into the 70s in style.
