Released to coincide with the tenth anniversary of Frank Sinatra's passing (May 14, 1998), NOTHING BUT THE BEST salutes “The Voice” with an essential single-disc compilation of hits from his years with Reprise Records, the label he founded in 1960. It features 22 remastered songs from “The Chairman Of The Board,” including a previously unissued version of “Body And Soul.” The brilliance of Sinatra is heard on hit after hit including “My Way,” “Fly Me To The Moon,” “Luck Be A Lady,” “Theme From New York, New York,” “The Best Is Yet To Come,” “Strangers In The Night,” “Come Fly With Me” and more. The collection features arrangements by Billy May, Nelson Riddle, Quincy Jones and other greats, and performances from the Count Basie Orchestra and Antonio Carlos Jobim, among other stellar collaborators. This historic collection is part of a joint venture involving Reprise Records, Warner Home Video, MGM Home Entertainment, Turner Classic Movies, Sirius Satellite Radio and the United States Postal Service to honor Francis Albert Sinatra, whose music and movies have an everlasting impact on popular culture. For a limited time, NOTHING BUT THE BEST will contain a commemorative Sinatra stamp with official USPS first-day issue cancellation.
