    It's astonishing how great this album sounds for a mid-50s mono recording. Great and vibrant instrumental soundstage, with Frank's voice right up front and center. These older Capitol pressings are worth it for having the full, uncut album alone. I don't know what Capitol was thinking when they took off a few tracks in 1962.
