Frank Sinatra would still be a cultural icon even if he had never set foot on a Las Vegas stage. Yet, in many ways, Sinatra is synonymous with Vegas. In 1951, he began a run that would last 43 years--mostly at the Sands, the hotel that would itself become a monument to his greatness. During those years Sinatra gave hundreds of dynamic performances, both at the Sands and elsewhere, and this concert, recorded at the intimate Golden Nugget venue in 1986, is one of them.

Backed by a large ensemble, complete with horns and strings, Sinatra rolls through many of his signature numbers, including "My Way," "I've Got You under My Skin," and "New York, New York." Sinatra also turns out other standards in his inimitable fashion, with "Luck Be a Lady," "I've Got a Crush on You," and "Mack the Knife" among them. Old Blue Eyes is in fine voice, and the inclusion of between-song banter makes listening to LIVE FROM LAS VEGAS feel like the next best thing to being there. The disc works nicely as a tribute to the glittering city, and a document of Sinatra's skill and charisma.

Recording information: Las Vegas, Nevada.

Personnel: Frank Sinatra (vocals); Jim Hughart (bass instrument); Irv Cottler (drums).

Liner Note Author: Charles Pignone.

3 stars Not a Very Good FS Album
FS sounds like he is over the hill on this album. Not a very good FS Album. Songs are all popular songs, but not very well sung.

1 star To be Frank
Firstly I'd like to comment on the Quality of the recording. I can only say that it resembled the kind of quality that I would expect to get from a walkman dangling in a toilet. What about the singing? Well I have been a lifelong fan of Mr Sinatra and for me he could do no wrong, until now. I can honestly say that this was Frank at his lowest ebb. The magic had gone. In fact after eagerly awaiting this CD I couldn't bear to listen to more than about half of it.So I'm sorry my advice (though you probably wont print this) to all fans is give this one a miss. If he were alive he would not have allowed its release.

5 stars A star for ever
I liked this album, the songs, the voice, even if Frank Sinatra's voice was too old with all the consequences. I agree with other people saying that during 1956-1959 the Sinatra's live performances were better. However, my personal opinion is that Sinatra live/radio appearances during the 1940s were the best of his career. I wish one day to be released all the unreleased songs of the 1940s.

3 stars For hardcore fans only
I always get excited about anything that comes out of the Old Blue Eyes' vaults. Thing is, what I'd like to get my hands on is more live stuff from Frank's golden age, say around 1956-59? Now, this newly released Golden Nugget gig brings nothing new to the legend and should appeal to hard core fans only. As far as this 43 year old Sinatra fan is concerned, voice wise and attitude wise the best of Sinatra live remains Reprise's 1966 Sinatra at the sands. Now, THAT's a killer.

3 stars MIXED QUALITY NUGGET
As a self styled archivist and devotee of Sinatra since the early 50's; I - like so many - were looking forward to this release, due to the amount of material lying in studio vaults and elswhere of so many live concerts. performances. The selection of songs were excellent and the performances were very acceptable for a concert of his later years....The problems were virtually all technical.....Sinatra's voice often atlow level..some of the introdutions and numbers in mono with others in stereo...Orchestra balance OK although a little less treble would have been better... I suspect this CD was taken from several concerts.....The technicians did a poor job of remastering - especially in this limitless digital age.....Had it been technically better, I'm sure it would have passed as an essential collector's 'gem'.

THE LAST CONCERT was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album. There's an energetic version of "Old Man River" that positively crackles with excitement, and a poignant tribute to Frank Sinatra in "The Singer," composed by Clooney's drummer, Joe Cocuzzo, followed by an equally moving version of George Gershwin's "They Can't Take That Away From Me." But though THE LAST CONCERT was recorded just a couple of months after 9/11 ("God Bless America" is an affecting finale), and Clooney was to succumb to cancer seven months later, there's no sense of pathos here. Rather, one gets the lasting impression that singer, band, and audience are simply having the time of their lives. Her only live concert recording ever! Features her emotional rendition of 'God Bless America', never before recorded by Ms. Clooney & destined to become an American treasure. 14 tracks. Concord ...

As charming on the movie screen as he was on record or in a concert setting, Dean Martin personified the grace, cool, and devil-may-care aura of the Rat Pack. And there was no place Dino was more at home than in Las Vegas. LIVE FROM LAS VEGAS presents Martin performing at the Rat Pack's second home, the Sands, in 1967--a time when he, Sinatra, and their pals where still mighty figures but had begun to shine a bit less brightly for the fickle public's whims.

Live From Las Vegas
CD $66.69  5 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
There's a reason why Frank Sinatra and Las Vegas are so closely linked: Ol' Blue Eyes was supremely comfortable in Sin City, allowing for many of his greatest performances over the decades, as revealed on this excellent 2006 four-CD/one-DVD collection of previously unreleased material. While the first two discs present Sinatra at the Sands during his 1960s heyday, the third and fourth discs consist of '80s concerts. Naturally, the '60s recordings find the Chairman of the Board in top form, as the deep-voiced crooner breezes through jazz/pop classics such as "Moonlight in Vermont" and "Come Fly with Me," the latter part of a remarkable set with Count Basie and his orchestra. However, the '80s shows are also impressive, revealing that Sinatra could still stun an audience late in his storied career, a notion further backed up by video footage of a swinging late-'70s concert at Caesar's Palace. Experience The Chairman at his pulse-pounding best in this 4-CD/1-DVD boxed set of unforgettable live performancesin ...
