Released to coincide with {$Frank Sinatra's} 80th Birthday, {^Sinatra 80th -- All the Best} is a double disc set that draws from his classic Capitol concept albums, as well as singles from the '50s and a couple of rarities, which aren't particularly compelling. The main strength of the package is as an introduction, since it recaps most of his essential recordings of the '50s and gives a sense of his accomplishments. Nevertheless, the set is only a teaser, since most of {$Sinatra's} Capitol records -- both the original albums and single compilations -- are better-sequenced and more rewarding. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
