Reprise/UMe are continuing their ongoing Sinatra 100 reissue project with a brand new expanded version of the 1967 album Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim.
The album brought together two masters of their game from different genres, Sinatra from the world of pop and Jobim from the Latin and, more specifically, Bossa Nova genre.
Recorded over three nights, January 30 through February 1, 1967, Sinatra and Jobim take on seven of the Bossa Nova giants’ original songs along with three from the great American songbook with Jobim joining Frank on vocals for four of the tracks.
For this special edition, two bonus tracks have been added, a medley of Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars, Change Partners, I Concentrate on You and The Girl from Ipanema, which was recorded for the TV special A Man And His Music + Ella + Jobim, and a previously unreleased studio recording of The Girl From Ipanema.
The album will be released on April 7 on CD, heavyweight 180-gram vinyl, limited edition blue vinyl and via digital sources.
