Album Review
Arranged by Billy May, "Come Swing With Me" was Frank Sinatra's final swing session for Capitol Records. The album falls somewhere between the carefree "Come Fly With Me" and the hard-swinging "Come Dance With Me", borrowing elements of the humor of "Fly" and the intense, driving rhythms of "Dance". Recorded without strings or saxes, the brass-heavy sound of the album was noticeable, but it wasn't nearly as distinctive as the ping-ponging, stereo effects of the album. With its extreme stereo separation, "Come Swing With Me" has a bizzare, off-kilter feel that is accentuated by Sinatra's restless vocals. At the time of recording the album, Sinatra was also recording "I Remember Tommy" for Reprise and his affections were with his new label. That doesn't mean he sounds careless on "Come Swing With Me" -- in fact, his intense, speedy energy gives the album an edge that distinguishes the record. The album might not be as special as his two previous May collaborations, but it does have enough genuine gems to make it necessary. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
