In the Wee Small Hours is possibly Frank Sinatra's greatest achievement. If it had been his only album, it would have been enough to secure his positions as one of the greatest singers in jazz and popular music.
Recorded at Capitol's KHJ Studios, it was Sinatra's most personalised albums and one which he stated as his most treasured and proud of productions. The LP enter the Billboard charts on May 28, 1955, peaking at #2 and remaining in the chart for 33 weeks. In 1984 In the Wee Small Hours was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.
"Within a melancholy mood is one of Sinatra's most jazz-oriented performances. Sinatra sounds like a lonely, broken man on In the Wee Small Hours. In many ways, the album is a personal reflection of the heartbreak of his doomed love affair with actress Ava Gardner." - ***** Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AllMusic
Includes the bonus track "The Girl Next Door".
