 (5 Customer Reviews)
This is part of Capitol Records "Entertainer Of The Century" series.
This 1957 recording marks Sinatra's first collaboration with arranger Gordon Jenkins. Jenkins was an innovator whose sympathetic orchestrations for Sinatra, second only to those of Nelson Riddle, would mark a bright period in the singer's long, celestial career. Besides his phenomenal vocal abilities, one of the things that set Sinatra apart from his contemporaries was his conceptual vision. He was one of the first pop singers to release albums that were thematically connected groups of songs, rather than just a haphazard collection of singles (take that, SGT. PEPPER!). The material Sinatra chose for WHERE ARE YOU reflects a mood of wistful regret and romantic longing, a mood the Chairman could mine more effectively than anybody this side of Mark Eitzel.
The unadulterated sadness of "Lonely Town" is as beautiful as it is unrelenting. Sinatra sings like a man painted into an emotional corner, powerless to change his predicament, and condemned to watch life and love blossom all around him while he remains isolated. "I'm A Fool To Want You" finds him examining the futility of his desires, backed by an unforgettable minor-key melody and a subtle, ghostly string arrangement.
Recorded between April and May 1957. Includes liner notes by Pete Welding.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Drowning In His Tears.....
For a person who was once considered to be the ultimate macho role model in the 1950s and early 60s, FS' so called "suicide sets" revealed a soul in permanent romantic torment. For all of his considerable sexual hunger, the sense of immense heartbreak and sorrow still emerges from the core of FS. "I Think Of You", " The Night We Called It A Day" and " I'm A Fool To Want You" could be odes to Ava Gardner, but the sentiments are universal. Fifty years on from the original release, anybody who has their heart broken can relate to these timeless ballads.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No If Only there was more of this!
Gordon Jenkins provided lush, beautiful arrangements, the sound is excellent and incidentally, this was Sinatra's first stereo Lp. He rose to the occasion and produced what may be one of the most beautiful collections of the Capitol era. He did Joll Christmas, No One Cares, All Alone, and September of My Years with this arranger. Each one is superb in its own right, but this one has always been a favorite.

AND THEN THERE WAS X was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Rap Album and "Party Up" was nominated for Best Rap Solo Performance.
No other rapper exerts quite as much energy as Def Jam heavyweight DMX. With his adrenaline-pumped hip-hop anthems, Yonkers native DMX has taken the hip-hop industry by storm. His third album, AND THEN THERE WAS X came only one year after his highly-anticipated second album, FLESH OF MY FLESH..., which came only six months after his multi-platinum debut, IT'S DARK AND HELL IS HOT. With this series of rapid-fire releases, DMX was able to remain on the cutting edge of rap.
"What's My Name?" perhaps most clearly demonstrates the power of the Ruff Ryder frontman. The other Swizz Beatz-produced tracks bring forth more of the same flavor. His rough-edged lyrics and spitfire delivery will leave his "dogs" foaming at the mouth for more. Though X is backed by one of hip-hop's most prominent crews (the Ruff Ryders), the platinum ...
