Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
By 1964, with the Beatles' fame exploding all around them, the heyday of Frank Sinatra's fabled Rat Pack was just about over. But if they were daunted by middle age, the rapid encroachment of rock & roll, or simply the volatile presence of each other, there's no trace of it in their rollicking musical spoof of Robin Hood, the Warner Bros. gangster flicks of the 30's and 40's, and--crucially--themselves. Perhaps inspired by their irreverent, recently recorded Broadway romps for Sinatra's Reprise label (Guys and Dolls, Finian's Rainbow, Kiss Me, Kate, and South Pacific), the Pack (including, as it did on Guys and Dolls, guest Rat Bing Crosby) took the freewheeling nature of those records to the big screen and to this original score for the motion picture. The seven musical "hoods" here are Sinatra, Crosby, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., songwriters Sammy Cahn and Jimmy Van Heusen, and composer/conductor Nelson Riddle. All showcase their resumés well, from Sinatra's rendition of the familiar "My Kind of Town" (also included as a bonus track is a previously unreleased alternate version) to Davis's show-stopping ode to cold-blooded murder, "Bang! Bang!" And lest anyone take the proceedings too seriously, they hand off "All for One and One for All" to that somewhat less than noted crooner Peter Falk and let Crosby preach the Gospel of "Don't Be a Do-Badder" and "Mr. Booze" as--wait for it--a temperance lecturer! With the original album long out of print and here making its debut on CD, this edition restores the Rat Pack's lively film swan song to its full sonic glory. --Jerry McCulley

it says it's the original soundtrack but it's not. if you're a big fan of this movie you notice the cuts on this album are rerecorded in a studio. they're not the song cuts that are from the soundtrack. had i known this i might not have bought this album. the sampler from amazon doesn't give enough from the songs so that you realize this.

On the audio commentary on the DVD of this motion picture, Frank Sinatra Jr. (Does anyone know why he doesn't call Sinatra Sr. "Dad" instead of "Sinatra?") said that his dad wanted to re-record the entire score in stereophonic sound. So, hence, two different versions of every musical number. I already have this version of "My Kind of Town" on the "Reprise Collection" cd. So why should I even buy the cd when they're not the songs I've seen on the movie? The film (monophonic) version of "My Kind of ... Read More

I thought the CD was thrown together. Out of 16 tracks
(two were labeled BONUS TRACK), four songs were repeats of two songs,
and three of the 16 tracks were calle Studio chatter, which was the stars
mumbing nothing of interest. Nine out of 16 and there were only three decent
ones of the nine. I'd like to believe Frank Sinatra was embarrassed to be a
part of it.

this is the only cd available of this movie soundtrack of what has become sort of a cult-following flick (up there with ocean's eleven among sinatra's best films), so if you want it, you will have to shell out twice the going rate, to get the overpriced, hokey gold cd, but it is worth it to get this music (and the gold cd sure is shiny...)
the sound quality on this digitally remastered cd is really as good as advertised, but perhaps, to rationalize for overpaying for this cd, i imagined ... Read More

The songs range from being excellent (My kind of town) to silly (Do Badderer). What makes this album fun is the presense of four legends and the superb arrangements by Nelson Riddle.
Finally, the sound quality is top notch. A bit dry (lacking reverb) but clean!
ALL Sinatra CDs should sound this clean!
