Sinatra & Company boasts two distinct moods. The first side of this album is in the Bossa nova style, and the second side is influenced by soft-rock, featuring a couple of standards from John Denver. The bossa nova recordings were originally cut for a follow-up to the widely acclaimed Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim. Arranged by Eumir Deodato, the recordings had been completed and the artwork finalized when the decision was made to retrench. Under longtime arranger Don Costa's direction, these songs are given arrangements that feature both strings and gentle folk-rock underpinnings, particularly strummed acoustic guitars. Taken on its own terms, the second half of Sinatra & Company ranks as some of his best soft rock-influenced material of the late '60s - while the bossa nova recordings are adventurous, compelling and just plain fun.
