I like the introspective, high-concept register of Sinatra better (a la "In the Wee Small Hours"). but this is nice too. feels like i'm sitting in my grandma's living room. or watching a scorsese movie montage. both great vibes
an arrival; I've been listening to a lot of old time "hillbilly music," so I have a better grasp of what a shock to the system this was. Impactful today like the cultural memory of Elvis has always suggested. Also simultaneously a series of covers that have (mostly) been done better by others.
a little thrown off by the studio artifice (I was expecting a true live album). solid renditions of some Duke Ellington classics. the last few tracks (comprising the "suite") are fine. bonus points for the famous gonsalves solo, of course.

Going through the entire book in order.
EDIT: I accidentally skipped some pages. New listening order is now based on the list from the 1001 Albums Generator website.
