Reviews Customer Reviews for In The Wee Small Hours      Nonpareil      Rating:      Truly, the creative symbiosis that arises from the inspired songwriter, the talented arranger and the gifted interpreter is best exemplified in Sinatra's albums for Capitol Records of the late 1950s.     Customer Reviews for In The Wee Small Hours Cd      Never cared for him before, but now I love the man      Rating:      Aside from a couple "best of" compilations, I never really cared much for Sinatra. I preferred Dean Martin and thought that even Sinatra's hits were OK at best. Then I heard this album, and now I understand why people went crazy for this man. I listened to this on my drive to work, and the sadness stuck with me for the remainder of my shift. This is a masterpiece which should be heard by all music fans, and it does a great job of getting you to want to hear more of what Sinatra has to offer. His singing on this album is perfect, delivering the melancholy in such an effective manner that you want to put your arm around the guy and tell him that everything's gonna turn out alright. The key factor on this album, however, is Nelson Riddle, someone who I never heard of before but who I now want to hear more of. His arrangements are so beautiful that you feel like you're listening to something more than just your run-of-the-mill pop album. I can't really say anything that the people here haven't already said about this album, except that it converted me, someone who didn't really care that much for Sinatra, into a fan. It may do the same for you, at least if your ears are working.
