This 1962 release finds Sinatra paired for the first time with Neal Hefti, the talented composer/arranger who provided the Count Basie "New Testament" band of the '50s with some of its classiest material. The word "brass" is featured in the title, but one comes away from this excellently produced session with an impression of sinewy, shimmering reed charts; characteristic of the Basie band. The following year, Sinatra would record a classic album with Basie himself, entitled simply SINATRA-BASIE, with Hefti once more at helm. SINATRA AND SWINGIN' BRASS is the one of the jazziest of all Sinatra records. Only Cole Porter's "At Long Last Love" emerges as a definitive version, but still Sinatra was on a remarkable roll in the early '60s and, thanks to Neal Hefti, this bright gem has lost none of its luster.
