ALBUM

Love Is a Kick (1958)

A Columbia Records compilation drawing from Sinatra's recordings of the 1940s and 1950s, the album gathers a mix of ballads and uptempo tracks, including four songs that reached the Top 40. It gives a good cross-section of his earlier work before his Capitol Records period hit its stride.
