Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Sinatra (1969) is the latest edition in my quest to obtain all of the specials on DVD. After seeing the first special from 65 and the one with Ella and Jobim, or even the playful special with the 5th Dimension, this one paled in comparison. Sinatra isn't as emotionally involved in this one as he had been in the past, and it is clear to see. While on some songs Sinatra sounds powerful, on most he sounds tired and appears to be pushing a little too hard. There are a few times when he blatantly coughs into the microphone and appears raspy. However, Forget to Remember rises above all, and is an emotionally moving masterpiece.Perhaps most disappointing is the DVD's audio track. Unlike the other Sinatra specials I have, this one has alot of hiss, and a few points when the sound appears to drop out a little. Whether or not this is the fault of poor transferring or if the original tapes are damaged, it is nontheless distracting. All in all, there are enough worthwhile moments on this DVD to justify purchasing it, however, I wouldn't start with this particular one.
