Album Description
For the first time in over three decades, the Frank Sinatra/Antonio Carlos Jobim recordings are now together in The Complete Reprise Recordings, the most comprehensive compilation of the Sinatra/Jobim sessions yet. The re-mastered classics of the two late musical legends include "Dindi," "How Insensitive," "Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars," and of course, "The Girl from Ipanema," a Jobim masterpiece covered by numerous colleagues such as pianist Vince Guaraldi. In addition to those, there are three new bonus tracks on this reprise that allow for a new compositional spark that perfectly compliment the jazz standards that Jobim arranges in his distinct Brazilian bossa nova style. The Complete Reprise Recordings are a must-have for any collector, and a new lifestyle for dedicated Sinatra/Jobim fans. Sinatra's voice has been heard around the world, and as it is matched flawlessly with the compositional genius of Antonio Carlos Jobim, his fame will continue to grow more than a decade after his passing.

5 out of 5 stars How can you go wrong with Sinatra AND Jobim....   September 7, 2010
Pamela W. Foltz (New York)
I'm a Sinatra fan in general but especially when he sings certain genres of music. The Jobim collaboration with Sinatra is flawless. Puts me in a great mood and transports you to another time--hopefully happier times....


5 out of 5 stars Buy this one!   August 29, 2010
Johnny Apollo (USA)
This is a great CD and the sound is just fine. It's one of my favorite Cd's. I have several Carlos Jobim CDs as well as a few Frank CDs and its nice to have this one. I'm no sound engineer but I have never even noticed any hint of a problem with the sound. Nada. My advice: I highly recommend not paying attention to the negative reviews and buying this CD today. You won't be disappointed... Btw, there is an expensive... DVD with Frank and Carlos Jobim singing a few of these songs together on stage. I own it. They're both on stools while Carlos accompanies w/ guitar. It very good to watch but too brief. They do a melody. I forget how long but its under 10 minutes and the DVD also has solo Frank and also Ella Fitzgerald. In total the DVD is about 50+ minutes long. I just wish more was w/ Carlos...I think Blockbuster has it for rent online.


5 out of 5 stars Frank Sinatra from the "Good Ole Days."   August 19, 2010
Quentin Compson
The issuance of CDs of Frank Sinatra "from the past" and Amazon selling them caught my eye. I bought two (2) and will buy more. The quality of the sound is very good and the music "smoth." Thanks


5 out of 5 stars Too much scientific listeners   August 15, 2010

I used to be a "music analyzer" years ago, but now I am completly happy been a music lover.
I am what people call an "audiophile", having Cary amps, Dynaudio speakers, Transparent cables, Meridian 518 digital D/D converter, Cambridge DAC Magic d/a converter, Wadia iPod transporter, Pro-Ject Perspex turntable.etc.
Who cares if the stereo is narrow, or an "error" of the bass is in track 5 (2:31).
The music is for listening not for "analyze"
This Cd is wonderful, warm, and very close to analogue sound of the vinyl.
Buy this CD and enjoy with a good company and a good wine.
Enjoy.

I've always loved the original Sinatra/Jobim album and wanted more. I knew there was another album that never saw the light of day, so I was thrilled when I heard about this project to release it. The new songs are almost on par with the old ones, and I suspect that after listening to the a couple of hundred more time they will blend it perfectly with the rest. Sinatra's voice is in excellent condition and perfectly suited for Jobim's creations.
