Synopsis

Album Description

International superstar Michael Bolton has taken on another extraordinary challenge with Bolton Swings Sinatra (PASSION MUSIC CO./Concord Records). The collection finds him singing classics like "New York, New York," "Night and Day," "My Funny Valentine," "Fly Me to the Moon," "Girl From Ipanema" and "That?s Life," and bringing in special guest Nicollette Sheridan for a duet on "The Second Time Around." "For years I?ve kept a list of dream projects," Bolton notes. "At the top of that list was an album of songs made famous by Frank Sinatra." Supervising the arrangements and orchestrations down to the last note, he?s created an affectionate, dynamic tribute to some of the greatest recordings of the 20th century. The result will be a revelation even for longtime fans ? passionate, playful, boisterous, intimate, and everything in between; Bolton Swings Sinatra is a dazzling pairing of singer and material.

CD Reviews

1 star for the nice haircut on cover

Alexander S. Meyer | Laredo Texas | 06/08/2006

(1 out of 5 stars)

""Great" musicians can accurately determine when to take artistic chances...the ones who are "great" and "smart" know what material to stay away from . Recording these Sinatra songs was a huge miscalculation for Bolton. He simply doesn't have the vocal chops or flair to extract the mood and feeling of these songs. While I was never a Bolton Fan, I did hear his pop records in the 80's...he sounded like he was in his league back then with his aching and annoying ballads....that sort of worked...this cd of Sinatra covers is just a "vanity project". It's not painfully unlistenable...it's just not very good..sorry

If you want to hear a really good (and underrated singer), check out the big band cd recorded by FrankStallone a few years ago...unlike this Bolton Bomb, it's full of great heartfelt singing .....an astonishing surprise !"

Bolton Snoozes Sinatra

Gokart Mozart | 06/17/2006

(1 out of 5 stars)

"This cd is a disastrous rendering of timeless classics into a stratospheric realm of insipid oblivion. Michael Bolton is not a musician. Completely devoid of any voice quality or sense of phrasing, The Chairman of the Boring weaves a tangled web of musical destruction with every note. Where Michael Bolton found the nerve to actually do this is something I will never fathom. Maybe it was the money, but I'm sorry, this goes beyond financial considerations. Mr. Bolton simply had no business making any attempt at Ol' Blue Eyes' songs. What we have here is a classic example of what could occur when massive ego is combined with infinitesimal talent. To sum it all up, this cd is a meadow muffin."

BOLTON BUTCHED THE SONGS OF SINATRA!

Sinatra Lover | 06/16/2006

"If I can choose something lower than one star I would. This is the worst piece of trash I have ever heard. He has butchered the songs of Sinatra. Classics should not be tampered with! His voice is so shrill it makes me cringe.

How this man has got to where he is makes me scratch my head. He simply can not sing. His voice gets under my skin.

Do yourself a favor and do not buy this CD, it contributes to noise pollution and continues a career of a man who simply can not sing. May Frank have mercy on you!"
