Legendary Status held by “Frank Sintra at The Sands” on Mobile Fidelity!
The Sessions
Sinatra at the Sands was recorded during multiple shows in early 1966, at the Copa Room at the Sands Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas. Sinatra was accompanied by Count Basie's Orchestra and the sessions were arranged and conducted by Quincy Jones. Sinatra is in very fine voice throughout Sands, as he performs many of his most beloved songs as well as a few new ones. I've always been a fan of this album, as it showcases Sinatra's charm and charisma in a way that the studio releases can't quite capture. And while Basie's orchestra can't be accused of showing too much restraint in their playing, their bombastic performance suits the occasion. This album is truly a time capsule of the era!
The Packaging
Mofi presents this two-record set on 180 gram vinyl, using the original gatefold artwork. The vinyl is clean and flat, and plays with virtually no noise throughout the four sides. The vinyl is housed in Mofi's own no-static rice paper poly sleeves. Mofi has established itself as the label with the most consistency in their vinyl quality--and this release is no different.
The Sound
Mastered from the Original Analog Master Tapes by Rob Loverde, the Mofi vinyl is more dynamic, carries a richer tonal palette, and removes a layer of grain from Sinatra's voice that can be heard on the original Reprise. The Mofi's soundstage is wider than the Reprise, with sound that extends well beyond the width of the speakers, and its presentation is more detailed--as woodwinds, brass, and strings can easily be differentiated from one another in the mix.
The Mofi trades the upper-midrange hump of the the original Reprise for a richness in the lower-midrange, which results in uptempo songs, such as Come Fly With Me and Fly Me to the Moon, swinging more. The Mofi really showcases the upright bass, which had me tapping my toes as I listened. On ballads, such as the signature, One For My Baby, Sinatra's voice is rendered with more realism on the Mofi, as the upper-midrange grain has been removed and Sinatra's chest voice comes through with a previously unheard muscularity.
This is simply the best that this material has ever sounded -
- and a must-have for any serious fan of Sinatra !
Highly Recommended !
This is without a doubt Frank Sinatra's finest album
and favorite among his millions of fans !
