Nobody does heartbreak like Frank Sinatra. Well-versed in what it means to be down-and-out, desperate, and depressed, the singer reaches profound emotional depths on Only the Lonely, a landmark 1958 concept album that remains one of Sinatra’s most legendary statements. Featuring definitive versions of time-honed standards, this cornerstone of the American songbook is a must-have.

Remastered from the original analog tapes, Mobile Fidelity’s GAIN 2 Ultra Analog 180-gram LP reveals every expressive nuance, bourbon-soaked note, and devastating nook on a record that iconic arranger Nelson Riddle cited as his favorite Sinatra work.  The reference-caliber sonics bring the performances to light in a way never imagined. Here is irrefutable proof that Sinatra’s voice doesn’t crack, fade, waver, or strain at any point.
