Among his multiple talents were his sense of dramatic communication, his stage mastery, his perfectionism with approach to his singing, a subtle control of the resources offered by the microphone, and above all, the magic gift of swing which was at the heart of his success.The years Sinatra spent with Tommy Dorsey mark the beginnings of a great vocalist during his formative period. Sensitive listeners will enjoy watching the evolution of an artist who was conscious of his art from the start.This collection presents all the performances Sinatra recorded under Tommy Dorsey's leadership featuring arrangements by the great composer-arranger Sy Oliver, with whom the singer would work again twenty-years later. This release includes two more selections arranged by Oliver as bonus tracks (“Sweet Lorraine” with a group of selected jazz musicians, and “A Little Learnin' Is a Dangerous Thing”), plus additional tunes presenting Sinatra backed by small jazz groups.
