Frank Sinatra | In the Wee Small Hours | Vinyl

Produced by Voyle Gilmore and arranged/conducted by Nelson Riddle, In the Wee Small Hours strings together sixteen songs of loneliness, heartbreak, and late-night introspection into a unified mood piece, released as Sinatra’s first true 12-inch LP for Capitol Records. The record is frequently cited by critics and historians as one of popular music’s earliest concept albums, helping establish the LP format itself as a vehicle for serious artistic statements rather than a loose collection of singles. It has been certified Gold and appeared multiple times on Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. This Spanish reissue label pressing brings the 1955 Capitol classic back to vinyl.
