Review

The Popular Frank Sinatra, Vol. 1 is a wonderful, 20-track collection of highlights from Sinatra's stint with Tommy Dorsey & His Orchestra. Every song on the collection was recorded between 1940 and 1941, as his star was on the rise, and while this doesn't contain all of his most familiar songs from the period, it contains a good portion of them, as well as recordings with the Pied Pipers, Connie Haines and Jo Stafford. For collectors who don't want to invest in the box set, yet want more than a greatest-hits disc, this is an ideal series. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
