Reception
John Bush on AllMusic remarked that, although the compilation is "not a great choice for beginners, [...] it provides a great complement to his studio albums of the '50s". Overall, he gave the album a rating of 4/5.[2] Ross Langager, writing for PopMatters, defines the album as "a useful document of Sinatra’s singular vocal prowess", despite "oddly lacking in context", and describes the song selection as "a patchwork of classics, semi-classics, novelty songs, and even some near-filler".[1] Eric C. Olsen on Cleveland.com complimented the audio quality, noting it "is higher than you might find on some older albums from other sources". In his opinion, the producers "attempted to provide a varied mix that includes well-known tunes along with a few surprises", resulting in "a very nice collection".[3]
