Remastered on 180g Vinyl!Come Fly with Me is an album by American singer Frank Sinatra, released in 1958. Designed as a musical trip around the world, Come Fly With me was Frank Sinatra's first collaboration with arranger/conductor Billy May.
Recorded at Capitol Studios and released in 1958, Come Fly With me spent five weeks at number one on the charts. It was also Grammy-nominated for Album of the Year.
Here's Frank Sinatra at his jaunty, romantic best--personally guiding you on a high-flying musical tour that spans three continents!
"May's signature bold, brassy arrangements give these songs a playful, carefree, nearly sarcastic feel, but never is the approach less than affectionate. In fact, Come Fly With Me is filled with varying moods and textures, as it moves from boisterous swing numbers to romantic ballads, and hitting any number of emotions in between. There may be greater albums in Sinatra's catalog, but few are quite as fun as Come Fly With Me." -Stephen Thomas Erlewine, allmusic.com
