"I haven't sung so softly since I had laryngitis." That January 30, 1967, he did it. For the first time in his career, The Voice had to put its foot on the brake. And also for the first (and only) time in 52 years of life, Frank Sinatra signed his Christian name on a phonographic record. Francis Albert Sinatra was in the studio with the Brazilian Antonio Carlos Jobim. The meeting of the greatest American singer with the father of bossa nova - the title of the album brings together the full names of the two authors - has now won a new edition, commemorating 50 years.
Short album (does not reach 30 minutes) with ten songs, brings together seven of Jobim himself ( The girl from Ipanema , Dindi , Meditation , How insensitive , among others) and three North American standards ( Change partners , I concentrate on you and Baubles , bangles and beads ). The reissue brings two bonus tracks: the medley Quiet night of quiet stars / Change partners / I concentrate on you / The girl from Ipanema taken from the TV show A man and his music + Ella Jobim (also from 1967) and an unprecedented recording of The girl from Ipanema , made during the registration of Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim. The sound is bossa nova with a more sophisticated outfit, since the arrangements were under the responsibility of the German Claus Ogerman. The album was a public and critical success, remaining 28 weeks on the Billboard charts.
Grammy-nominated, he justly lost the gold gramophone album of the year to Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, by the Beatles. Sinatra was a little late in the hump. It was five years ago, since the historic concert at Carnegie Hall, that the Brazilian beat had become a fever in the United States. Although a little late, the album can be considered fundamental.
The main reason is for bringing Sinatra at a special time. His interpretation is very subtle, of a vocal technique that until then seemed unprecedented in his long trajectory. In complete harmony with Jobim and his soft guitar, the drummer Dom Um Romão stands out. "A Brazilian who seemed, at the same time, to be alert and drugged," wrote Stan Cornyn in the album insert. Warner executive, he worked several times on Sinatra albums. Sinatra and Jobim (“Tone”, as The Voice called the conductor) recorded another work together. In 1969, they got together for a new album. The irregular result came out in the compilation Sinatra and company, which went public only in 1971. Three other tracks from this same studio encounter remained unpublished until 2010, when the double album Sinatra / Jobim: The complete Reprise recordings was released, which brought together the recordings made in 1967 and 1969. In this way, it is the work of 50 years ago that must remain the meeting of the two giants of music. Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim is a very silent album, to be tasted little by little. Without haste, and for many, many times. https://www.diariodepernambuco.com.br/noticia/viver/2017/08/album-historico-de-frank-sinatra-e-tom-jobim-ganha-edicao-comemorativa.html
