It has been said that men dream of being kings while kings dream of immortality. There are few artists in history who have possessed the power to leave such an indelible imprint on all the world the world. Sinatra is one of the very few singers with such a dynamic vocal and personal range that he could sing with complete authority, strength and conviction one moment and in another stir us our core with a tenderness and a sense of vulnerability that would deliver the pure emotion and meaning the composer intended. I believe his enormous respect for the composers and arrangers he so often praised in his public appearances in central to his enduring sucess. Sinatra knew the single the most important thing for a singer is a great song. And to our great fortune he chose a wealth of exquisite songs to share with us. Frank Sinatra was, and alwayswill be, a musical Giant who's amazing voice, passion to sing, unique "bigger than life" personality and his pure love for music combined, has achieved immorality." --- Michael Bolton 在唱片裡, Michael Bolton以爵士樂的形式去演繹大碟裡的作品, 而音樂班底方面也邀請到不少著名的爵士樂手擔綱演出; 音樂彈奏充滿了不少昔日大樂隊的情懷, 而其中一些帶了不少Smooth Jazz的音韻, 感覺清爽動人, 相當優美; 音色清晰細緻, 歌聲和音樂呈現豐富的醉人情感, 散發不少成熟的情懷, 可以說是近年一張製作得認真而有誠意的高份量級唱片!! 現在就為大家介紹碟中十二首作品的水準: 第一首作品"You Go To My Head", 音樂演奏出一份舒懷輕鬆的情感, 小提琴緩緩的拉奏, 再配合醉人的色士風吹奏, 而令人愛不釋手; Michael Bolton以一副感性歌聲唱出動人神韻, 相當出色!! 最後幾聲的美妙豎琴拉奏, 為此曲譜上美麗終結, 一流!! 第二首作品"Fly Me To The Moon", 音樂方面以一個輕巧的節奏去演繹, 有一份讓人重回昔日以大樂隊演奏的時光; 鋼琴和Trumpet Solo部份最為出色, 奏出精彩美麗的情懷!! 而Michael Bolton的歌聲亦配合得相流暢出色, 演唱得收放自如, 水準之作!! 第三首作品"For Once In My Life", 全首音樂散發了一份清新美妙的大都會節拍, Michael Bolton以一份帶少鹵E情的歌聲唱出動人情感, 動態十足!! 而樂隊以有力的節拍演奏音樂部份, 相當吸引; 當然也不少得出色的Saxphone Solo, 充滿活力!! 第四首作品"Summer Wind", 音樂部份呈現相當亮麗的色彩, 鋼琴手輕輕的彈奏, 添上一份詩意優雅的情懷; Michael Bolton以輕鬆的歌唱手法唱出歌詞, 同樣出色!! 第五首作品"My Funny Valentine", Piano Solo掀起序幕, 配合歌者柔和清新的歌聲, 感受相當美妙; 而弦樂隊的演出, 相當亮麗真摰, 再加上Trumpet, Harp和Flute聲的附和, 水準更上一層樓!!
