To Ricahrd-W: Thanks for the tip on the Sinatra in Hollywood CD set. Somehow, I completely missed that when it came out. I was able to find a used copy on ebay for only $55.00; a steal considering others are selling like-new copies for over $200.00!
Definitely a steal! SAE had it listed and I recently ordered it from them, only to be told it was a mistake and they didn't have it and could no longer get it. I think I got mine from Amazon UK for a reasonable price, but not as cheap as yours. A beautiful set, for sure.
Here's a 100th birthday retrospective of the films, and music of Frank Sinatra, as well as an analysis of many of the symphonic and jazz scores composed for his films, published by Craig Ellis Jamison at his Gull Cottage/Sandlot Films web page.
