Universal describes this as a centennial collection which has been put together in honour of Frank Sinatra's 100th birthday (which actually occurs in December of this year):
Description The defining voice of the 20th century, Frank Sinatra enjoyed a legendary recording career that spanned six decades, beginning with his earliest session in 1939 and culminating with his last in 1993, for his world-renowned, multi-platinum Duets and Duets II albums. Ultimate Sinatra presents key recordings spanning the Chairman of the Board s recordings for Columbia, Capitol and Reprise, together for the first time. Ultimate Sinatra opens with 'All Or Nothing At All,' recorded with Harry James and his Orchestra on August 31, 1939 during Sinatra's first studio session. Ultimate Sinatra's 4CD edition boasts 100 tracks celebrating 100 years (plus a never before released bonus track), including many more luminous recordings that reinforce Sinatra's well-deserved moniker, The Voice. The chronological collection dives deeper into Sinatra's musical world of iconic recordings, before closing with a previously unreleased rehearsal version of 'The Surrey With The Fringe On Top' recorded in 1979. The deluxe edition also features an 80-page booklet with a new essay by Sinatra historian and author Charles Pignone, as well as rare photos and quotes from Frank Sinatra and his children, Nancy, Tina and Frank Jr., as well as Nelson Riddle, Billy May, Quincy Jones, and others.Tracklist CD1: 1.

There will also be a 1CD distillation available, and Sinatra collectors might want to pick this up too because it includes the alternate "Just In Time" which in the full box is only part of the digital EP:
Description The defining voice of the 20th century, Frank Sinatra enjoyed a legendary recording career that spanned six decades, beginning with his earliest session in 1939 and culminating with his last in 1993, for his world-renowned, multi-platinum Duets and Duets II albums. Ultimate Sinatra presents key recordings spanning the Chairman of the Board's recordings for Columbia, Capitol and Reprise, together for the first time. Ultimate Sinatra's single-disc CD brims with 25 stellar recordings representing a cross-section of Sinatra's unparalleled recording career. Led by 'All Or Nothing At All' and closed with a previously unreleased alternate version of 'Just In Time,' the collection is stacked with standouts, including 'I'll Never Smile Again' (1940), 'I've Got The World On A String' (1953), 'In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning' (1955), 'I've Got You Under My Skin' (1956), 'Come Fly With Me' (1957), 'The Way You Look Tonight' (1964), 'Fly Me To The Moon (In Other Words)' (1964), 'Strangers In The Night' (1966), 'My Way' (1968), and 'Theme From New York, New York' (1979), among many more.Tracklist 1.

I already have six Frank Sinatra boxed sets, but I'll probably get this one just to have all of his best songs in one collection.

I have a Columbia box, a Capitol box, and a Reprise box. But if this shows up at Discorama...well, what's a Jimbo to do?

I have 3 single CDs of the Columbia, Capitol, and Reprise years, plus a few more things, so this will be a great way to flesh things out a bit... If my math is correct, for the 4 CD box I see: --1 song of the Harry James years --2 of the Tommy Dorsey years --12 of the solo Columbia years --48 of the Capitol years --37 of the Reprise years --1 prev unrel If there is a better all encompassing comp out there, please lemme know before I plunge...

Wonder if the live tracks are unreleased. I wouldn't mind an official release of live Sinatra from 1993-1994, although I suspect I'm in the minority.
