I agree that Sinatra was at a peak vocally when he recorded this album. Some of his live performances are more loose, but in later years his voice was not up to par. It's a matter of taste. I am perfectly happy with the subtle yet expressive variations that Sinatra uses to perform these songs, many of them classics.
I was less happy with the Nelson Riddle arrangements. They seem excessively busy. They call attention to themselves when they ought to lay back and let the focus be on the soloist, i.e. Sinatra.
Riddle infuses his charts with little ornamentations, flourishes that strike me as a bit hokey, even clownish at times -- invention and variety for its own sake, rather than supporting and deepening the underlying rhythm, chord structure, and melody of the composition. My description here perhaps makes them sound a little more annoying than they actually are. Certainly some songs on this album evidence these flaws more than others. I am far from having encyclopedic knowledge of the big arrangers of the era gone by, but I've heard many by Claus Ogerman, and as a point of contrast, I think he was more serious and at the same time laid back in his charts. Here again, it is a matter of taste. I thought the orchestra called too much of the wrong kind of attention to itself too often on Songs for Swingin' Lovers.
In the final analysis, with great songs and Sinatra himself in great form, I still have to dock one star off a perfect five for the arrangements, which distract me from time to time with their obtrusive, pointless, sometimes silly little flourishes.
On the topic of sound quality, although I have not heard the original CD release, the remastered version truly does sound sub-par. Sinatra's upper registers, brass, strings, all seem to suffer from some subtle distortion that smudges detail and creates a sort of odd, artificial electronic haze. Really, hearing-impaired people should not be involved in mastering classic albums. Whoever did the job on Songs for Swingin' Lovers should probably be doing something more suited to his talents, like driving a cab. Although it is hard to put your finger on it exactly, there is something most definitely "wrong" with the sound. I'm fairly familiar with what recordings from the mid-50s sound like, and I can't believe the original master tape of this Sinatra record ever sounded as bad as this. I may buy this album -- its reputation as a classic is deserved (with my reservation about the arranging) -- but if I do, I will seek out the early release, not the later remastered CD.

The only downside to the CD is that it's one of the few Sinatra CD's that hasn't been digitally remastered. In fact the pressing available is one of the earliest CD's released coming out in 1987 so it's in desperate need of a decent remaster. horns can sound a little tinny at times and the volume needs to be boosted somewhat on a few tracks.
still these are minor nitpicks and when the quality of music is this good you can forgive things a bit.
5/5
この曲は高校時代の英語の授業で題材になったなぁ~と思い出しながら和訳を見ていると、
当時と解釈が違う。
あれ?と思いながらも、シナトラのベスト盤が欲しくなり2枚のCDを購入。
なにより安いし、車のコンポに入れておくには最適。
時代を越えて残ってはいるけれど、最近のメディアやCDショップで紹介されていない曲やアーティストを丁寧に紹介してくれて、
Amazonでの購入時には信じられないほど安い洋盤には本当に感謝。
クリーム、エリッククラプトンの回から毎週録画に設定し、気に入ったアルバムは購入しています。
