Sinatra was at his creative peak during his tenure at Capitol, and these gems, among the rarest of audiophile LPs, span the nine years he recorded there. Each disc is a sonic work of art, produced with loving care, the highest quality mastering, materials and attention to detail throughout the process. The depth and dimension of the music is delivered with all the dynamics and richness of the recording session. These LPs come as close as possible to the three-dimensional quality of Sinatra's legendary Capitol recording sessions. An essential set!
