It was also one of the first - arguably the very first - concept album. Songs for Young Lovers is a perfect example of this. Supported by a small orchestra, Sinatra and Riddle create an intimate, romantic atmosphere on the record, breathing new life into standards like "My Funny Valentine," "They Can't Take That Away From Me," "I Get a Kick Out of You," and "A Foggy Da. There is a breezy confidence to Sinatra's singing, and Riddle's arrangements are more complex than they initially appear. Again, the songs were all standards - "Just One of Those Things," "Wrap Your Troubles in Dreams," "All of Me" - that benefited from the new thematic setting, the new arrangements, and, of course, Sinatra's increasingly playful and textured vocals. Sinatra plays around with the melodies without leaving them behind, delivering each line with precision.
Swing Easy! is the ninth studio album of Frank Sinatra. Like it's predecessor of Songs for Young Lovers, Swing Easy! was released again in 1960 as an LP along with new songs. Swing Easy! was also re-released on CD along with tracks of Songs for Young Lovers. Just One of Those Things" (Cole Porter) - 3:12. I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter" (Fred E. Ahlert, Joe Young) - 2:24.
Frank Sinatra - Swing Easy. Apart from the annoying cover photo, this is a good slice of Sinatra. This is not a greatest hits and so has good continuity with the production, the band are excellent and frank's in fine voice. Not as good as "songs for swingin' lovers" but still pretty good. by focus-emma19 Feb, 2011.
