When you blaze as deep and wide a path in this world as Frank Sinatra, you're bound to gain admirers from all avenues on the musical map. Consequently, when Sinatra decided to put out the call for potential duet partners, everyone from Aretha to Julio to U2's Bono leaped at the chance to lend their voice. Considering the eclectic group of guest artists involved, the arrangements are remarkably consistent, and the potential egofest is eschewed in deference to Sinatra's artistry. Though the tunes tackled here are associated immediately with the Sinatra canon, many of them receive an unexpected twist. Among the most unusual is the surreal, David Lynch feel of the Sinatra/Bono "I've Got You Under My Skin," with Bono's haunting wail contrasting Sinatra's gruff pragmatism. Surprisingly, one of the most effective collaborations here is with an instrumentalist, perhaps just because it gives Sinatra's voice that much more room to roam; "One For My Baby," adorned by Kenny G's sax filigrees, has never rung truer. In the winter of his years, Sinatra invests the standard with an unprecedented pathos, regret and emotional devastation. It's perhaps his finest recorded moment of the decade, and makes DUETS instantly worth the price of admission.............................. *********************************************************************************************** ............... Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine ............... As a marketing concept, Frank Sinatra's comeback album Duets was a complete success. A collection of Sinatra standards produced by Phil Ramone, the record wasn't a duets album in the conventional sense — Sinatra never recorded in the studio with his partners. Instead, the other singers recorded their tracks separately, sometimes in different studios, and the two tracks were pasted together to create the illusion of a duet. In the case of several duet partners, including Bono and Barbara Streisand, this means they rely on camp as a way of making their performances interesting. Sinatra, meanwhile, is oblivious to all of the vocal grandstanding, simply because he recorded his tracks well in advance of their contributions. The result is a mess. Not only do the vocalists never mesh, but the orchestrations are ham-fisted and overblown, relying more on bombast than showmanship. Furthermore, Sinatra's performance is uneven; occasionally his voice is remarkable, but just as often it is thin and worn. Nevertheless, Duets was a gigantic hit, selling over two million copies and becoming Sinatra's single most commercially successful record, though it's easily the worst he released during his lengthy career. Duets rose to number two on the pop charts because of its masterful marketing strategy. The album was promoted as a piece of nostalgia, primarily to baby boomers but also to Generation X as a piece of kitsch. Both approaches ignore the emotional core of Sinatra's music, which is evident on only one track — "One for My Baby," which was essentially a solo performance introduced by an instrumental from saxophonist Kenny G. Perhaps if Duets remained true to the essence of Sinatra's music, it would have been more effective, but as it stands, the album is only admirable as a piece of product, not a piece of music. .............. ************************************************************************************************ ............... Rezensionen............... Nachdem er zehn Jahre kein Studioalbum mehr aufgenommen hatte, kehrte der unverwüstliche Weltstar Frank Sinatra 1993 in die Capitol Studios zurück. Mit einem Staraufgebot, wie es das für ein Studioalbum wohl noch nie gegeben hatte, sang er Duette seiner Klassiker. Zu den Gesangspartnern des damals 77-Jährigen gehörten andere Weltstars wie Charles Aznavour, Natalie Cole, Aretha Franklin, Julio Iglesias, Barbra Streisand, Bono und Luther Vandross. Die Songauswahl umfasst natürlich ausschließlich hochkarätige Klassiker, die direkt mit dem Namen Sinatra verbunden sind: "I've Got A Crush On You", "I've Got You Under My Skin", "New York, New York" oder "The Lady Is A Tramp". Aber nicht nur "Old Blue Eyes" hatte Spaß an diesem "Recording Event Of The Decade", auch seine weltberühmten Mitsänger waren sich der Ehre bewusst. Aznavour: "Ich hätte mir nie träumen lassen, einmal mit Sinatra zu singen!" Gloria Estefan: "Es war für mich die größte Ehre". Iglesias: "Für so eine Gelegenheit muss man dankbar sein!" Duets -- eine wunderbares Album, das in jede Plattensammlung gehört, genauso wie Duets II. --Julia Edenhofer -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine andere Ausgabe: CD................ ************************************************************************************************ ............... Audio............... Unverkennbar croont und swingt Sinatra vor 51 köpfigem Orchester 13 Duette. Mit Gloria Estefan (Come Rain Or Shine) und der scattenden Natalie Cole klappt's, grandios gar mit Charles Aznavour (You Make Me Feel So Young). Positiv verblüfft auch die Paarung mit U2s Bono (I've Got You Under My Skin). In What Now My Love muß sich Aretha Franklin zügeln; New York, New York (Tony Bennett) offenbart schmerzlich stimmlichen Verfall, verhüllt vom gnädigen Hall. Nach Sinatras Maßstäben: zwei Ohren. Aber: Sinatra bleibt Sinatra................ © Audio -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine andere Ausgabe: CD................ ************************************************************************************************ ............... Stereoplay ............... "Ol' Blue Eyes" is back: Bei seiner Deutschlandtournee im vergangenen Sommer wirkte der King des US-Showbusiness bisweilen kurzatmig, ja er vergaß ganze Liedzeilen. Man hätte nicht vermutet, daß Frank Sinatra noch einmal ein Studio betritt, Songs aufnimmt. Nun, mit "Duets", ist das Unglaubliche doch wahr geworden: Der 77jährige mißt sich mit Entertainern, Soul-Sängern und Rock-Rüpeln - und macht dabei seinem Titel "The Voice" alle Ehre. Den Anstoß zu der Session, die in amerikanischen Blättern als "The Recording Event Of The Decade" angekündigt wurde, gab der Pop-Produzent Phil Ramone. Er konnte den Oldtimer, der 1993 noch jeden zweiten Abend auf der Bühne stand, durch geduldige Überzeugungsarbeit bewegen, seine Erfolgssongs noch einmal zu recyclen. In Hollywoods Capitol-Studio, wo Sinatra bereits 1953 residiert hatte, lief er mit einem mächtig swingenden Orchester unter der Leitung von Patrick Williams erneut zu großer Form auf. Soul-Crooner Luther Vandross assistiert beim Entrèe mit "The Lady Is A Tramp". Aretha Franklin ("What Now My Love") und Barbra Streisand ("I've Cot A Crush On You") fügen sich mit ihren doch so unterschiedlichen Stimmen perfekt in den Fluß der Musik. Eine weniger gute Figur machen Schnulzier Julio Iglesias ("Summer Wind") und die Latino-Lady Gloria Estefan ("Come Rain Or Come Shine"). Dafür geriet "New York New York", Sinatras Hymne an die Stadt der Städte, mit Tony Bennetts Beistand zu einem wahren Song-Skyscraper. Weitere Gäste sind Chanson-Altmeister Charles Aznavour, Säusel-Saxophonist Kenny G. Carly Simon, Anita Baker, Natalie Cole und Liza Minnelli. U2-Sänger Bono müpft in "I've Got You Under My Skin" auf. "Don't you know, you old fool, you never can win", stichelt der Ire. Frankieboy kontert charmant: "Use your mentality, wake up to reality". ............... ***********************************************************************************************
