• Track Listing

It’s been more than two decades since a label boss decided to pull the trigger on a Chairman of the Board collection spotlighting all of his key eras (RCA Victor, Columbia, Capitol and Reprise). All these editions (single-CD, double-vinyl and 4-CD deluxe set) begin with Sinatra’s first studio session: "All or Nothing at All," recorded with Harry James & His Orchestra in August 1939. The double-vinyl edition then moves on to "Young at Heart," "I’ve Got the World on a String," "Nancy (with the Laughing Face)," "I’ve Got You Under My Skin," "Witchcraft," "All the Way," "Come Fly with Me," "The Way You Look Tonight," "My Kind of Town," "Fly Me to the Moon," "It Was a Very Good Year," "Summer Wind," "That’s Life," "My Way," "Theme from New York, New York" and more. The single CD adds a previously unreleased alternate version of "Just in Time;" on the 4-CD edition, you’ll find 100 tracks to mark 100 years of Ol’ Blue Eyes plus a special bonus: a 1979 rehearsal take of "The Surrey with the Fringe on Top." Also in that sprawling set (which comes with an 80-page booklet sporting a new essay and rare photos): "I’ll Never Smile Again," "I’m a Fool to Want You," "The Girl Next Door," "At Long Last Love," "The Very Thought of You," "Without a Song," "The Girl from Ipanema," "You Make Me Feel So Young," "My Funny Valentine," "Three Coins in the Fountain," "The Lady Is a Tramp," "Moonlight in Vermont," "Ol’ Man River," "Luck Be a Lady," "Wave" and more prized performances that paint a beautifully detailed portrait of one of the most cherished vocalists to ever walk the planet!
