Capitol CD compiles Frank Sinatra's first 2 Capitol LPs on 1 CD, arr Nelson Riddle. "Songs For Young Lovers" was recorded in 1953, Sinatra's first album project for Capitol (=tracks 1-8). It was a 10" album released in January 1954 (not 55). "Swing Easy" (=tracks 9-16) was released in August 1954. These two albums are how the "Sinatra-Capitol-story" began! For the sessions in November 1953, Riddle assembled a small orchestra of just 12 musicians - two saxes, four strings, a harp and the usual rhythm section. I think the sounds they produced are simply beyond words, as are the George Siravo arrangements (many of them written by Siravo before the album project came along, while it wasn't until recently that he was starting to get official credit for them as well) that Riddle got reshaped and fitted for the band. And the songs - all first class material, musically and lyrically. Almost impossible to pick a favourite! More or less the same also goes for "Swing Easy". Again, Riddle used only a small band of 14 pieces - and take a look at those names at the brass section, there were legendary musicians participating here (George Roberts! Abe Most! Sweets Edison! and so on...), and it shows, their swing sounds are impeccable. And what marvelous charts.
It seems almost unbelievable now that Capitol utilized the KHJ Studios at 5515 Melrose Avenue as its primary recording venue in the years before the construction of Capitol Tower. The KHJ Studios are a real relic. The building still stands, almost like a small island surrounded by the massive soundstages of Paramount. The acoustic of the KHJ Studios is far more intimate than those of Capitol Tower. The intimacy is obvious in these early Sinatra sessions. But it serves the concepts of both albums very well. The KHJ Studios were utilized for television production after Capitol abandoned the building in 1956. There is a great Mexican restaurant, Lucy's El Adobe, across the street from KHJ. The place is renowned for its margaritas, and I imagine Frank Sinatra must have dined there at least once. It was the favorite hangout of California ex-governor Jerry Brown when he was involved with Linda Ronstadt.
