Frank Sinatra was no doubt the most famous crooner of the 20th century. Recorded at the Lido and the Olympia in Paris in June 1962, this was the first visit to the French capital by the man they called "The Voice", and his impeccable shows and rare professionalism recall the best in American entertainment_ A great Sinatra, "live"! Patrick FREMEAUX The Live in Paris collection by Michel BrilliE allows listeners to hear previously-unreleased recordings (made at concerts and private- or radio-sessions) by the great 20th stars in jazz, rock & roll and song. These "live" takes, and the artists' rapport with their audiences, gives these performances an additional soul and sensibility in counterpoint to the rigorous demands of studio recordings. Particular care was taken when restoring the sound of these tapes in order to meet CD standards while preserving the original colours of the period. Patrick FREMEAUX & Gilles PETARD
