Reviews:

''Swing Easy!'' is a 1954 album by Frank Sinatra, his second released under the Capitol label. It was released as a 10" LP consisting of eight songs, the maximum playing time available to a ten-inch record side being under fourteen minutes.

His second album on Capitol and the first with arrangements by Nelson Riddle, using a swing band format for the instrumentation. As the title implies, the record concentrates on up-tempo swingers done with a light touch. Again, the songs were all standards -- "Just One of Those Things," "Wrap Your Troubles in Dreams," "All of Me" -- that benefited from the new thematic setting, the new arrangements, and, of course, Sinatra's increasingly playful and textured vocals. This album was also re-released in 1960,(catalogue number W1429) along with "Songs For Young Lovers" as a 12 inch LP with 4 extra songs added. The other songs were "Lean Baby", "I Love You", "How Could You Do A Thing Like That To Me?", and "Why Should I Cry Over You?".

This album is currently available on compact disc as a double album with ''Songs for Young Lovers'', also initially released in the ten-inch format. It is also available as an expanded disc by import. - Wikipedia
