''Songs for Swingin' Lovers!'' was the tenth studio album recorded by the American singer Frank Sinatra, his fourth for Capitol Records, it was arranged by Nelson Riddle and released in March 1956. ==Background== This album took a different track after ''In the Wee Small Hours'' (1955), recording existing pop standards in a hipper, jazzier fashion, revealing an overall exuberance in the vein of ''Songs for Young Lovers'' and ''Swing Easy!''. The original cover had Sinatra facing away from the young couple, but in 1957 Capitol altered the cover with a new image of Sinatra facing the couple. Most CD releases have retained the new cover. In 2000, the album was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame, and ranked number 306 on ''Rolling Stone'' magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time in 2003.〔() 〕 Sinatra aficionados often rank it his best or second best album (to ''In the Wee Small Hours'') and many music critics consider it one of the greatest albums of its era. The LP was the first number one album in the UK. It was knocked off the top after two weeks by ''Carousel'' (the 1956 movie's soundtrack). In February 2014, Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab released a hybrid disc (SACD + CD) of the album. The original 1956 front cover art was re-used for this issue. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Songs for Swingin' Lovers!」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
