Frank Sinatra Sends Several Albums Back To The Charts
Frank Sinatra has long reigned as the king of Billboard's jazz rankings. The company publishes a handful of tallies dedicated to the genre, some tracking songs currently being pushed to radio, while others focus on albums, including those tied to newer styles and more traditional sounds. Sinatra has scored dozens of successes across these lists and regularly claims multiple entries. But some frames are more impressive than others, and this latest one is especially huge for the late crooner.
Sinatra appears in five spaces on the Jazz Albums chart this week. That's an incredible amount of real estate for any musician to own, as the list only features 25 spots. The late superstar now lays claim to 20% of the entire roster. He's able to do so thanks to a mix of hugely popular holdovers and a pair of comebacks.
Sinatra Duets: The 20th Anniversary (Deluxe Edition) is the highest-ranking of the two returning favorites. On the Jazz Albums chart — which ranks the most consumed releases in the genre throughout the U.S. — the title reappears at No. 21 after previously topping out at No. 6.
Just two spots further down, The World We Knew also returns. That project is back on the list for only the second time, as it previously debuted and peaked at No. 17.
The singer and actor also scores two top 10 wins on the Jazz Albums chart this week. Ultimate Sinatra and Nothing But the Best hold steady at Nos. 2 and 10, respectively. Another compilation, Ultimate Sinatra: The Centennial Collection, moves up one rung to No. 15 this time around.
Sinatra Duets also manages to reenter the Traditional Jazz Albums chart, landing at No. 15. It joins Ultimate Sinatra, Nothing But the Best, and Ultimate Sinatra: The Centennial Collection, all of which remain completely unmoved from the previous frame. Those titles hold at Nos. 1, 8 and 11, respectively.

Book Review: A sudden blizzard strands a detective and murder suspects in a hunting lodge
Book Review - Hunter's Heart Ridge - 3x2 for APNews In 1965, as the Vietnam War escalates, a small group of wealthy, powerful men gather at a Vermont lodge to drink and hunt deer. Shortly after they arrive, one of their number, William Moulton, a supporter of the war and a former ambassador to West Germany, is found dead in the woods. State Trooper Franklin Warren, first introduced by author Sarah Stewart Taylor in 'Agony Hill,' (2024) is dispatched to investigate when 'Hunter's Heart Ridge' opens. The surviving members of the group speculate that Moulton died in a hunting accident or, perhaps, killed himself; but Warren promptly determines the man was murdered in a most unusual way. He was stabbed through the heart, and then someone fired a rifle shot through the stab wound as if trying to conceal the cause of death. The group, like the rest of the nation, had been hotly debating the wisdom and morality of the war. However, it soon becomes evident that most of them had a variety of additional reasons to dislike Moulton. As Warren proceeds with his investigation, it becomes evident that nearly everyone is lying to him about one thing or another, although it is not clear whether what each of them has to hide is related to the murder. Then a sudden, early season blizzard strikes, bringing down the telephone lines and stranding Warren with a house full of suspects, including members of the lodge service staff. 'It's like a movie, isn't it,' says one of the kitchen help. 'Or an Agatha Christie novel.' Yes, except that the story's pace sometimes drags. A subplot involving Franklin's friends Alice and Sylvie builds on characters who played a role in 'Agony Hill,' but it adds little to the main story and will be lost on those who have not read the previous novel. Nevertheless, the main plot is clever and suspenseful, and as usual in Taylor's novels (this is her tenth), the settings are vividly drawn and the characters — especially an excitable teenage girl named Jenny — are quirky and memorable. ___ Bruce DeSilva, winner of the Mystery Writers of America's Edgar Award, is the author of the Mulligan crime novels including 'The Dread Line.' ___ AP book reviews:

Liam Neeson Rips Into His STAR WARS Death Scene: 'Oh, Please. Hardly a Master Jedi' — GeekTyrant
Liam Neeson didn't hold back when recnetly critiquing his own Star Wars legacy. While promoting his upcoming comedy The Naked Gun , Neeson sat down with GQ to reflect on some of his most iconic roles, and when it came time to talk about Star Wars: The Phantom Menace , the actor criticized how his Jedi Master went out. During the video, Neeson looked back on playing Qui-Gon Jinn, and called out what he felt was a lackluster demise at the hands of Darth Maul. Neeson said: 'I'm supposed to be a master Jedi, you know. My character fell for that 'Oh! I'm going for your face! No I'm not. I'm going for your stomach.' [makes death noises] 'Oh, you got me!' Like, oh please. Hardly a master Jedi. But still, [making the film] was great.' To be fair, Qui-Gon's death has always sparked debate among fans. While Maul was undeniably a fearsome and highly trained Sith apprentice, Neeson makes a valid point. A Jedi Master who had easily dispatched battle droids throughout the film probably shouldn't have gone down so quickly. Especially when he was supposed to be one of the Order's most powerful and wise warriors, and crucially, the one meant to guide Anakin Skywalker's future. After The Phantom Menace , Neeson did return to the galaxy far, far away for a brief cameo as Qui-Gon's Force ghost in Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi , and also lent his voice to the animated series Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi . His son, Micheál Richardson, even voiced a younger version of Qui-Gon in the show. But as far as doing anything more in the Star Wars universe, Neeson isn't feeling it. 'It's diluting it to me, and it's taken away the mystery and magic in a weird way.' He makes it pretty clear he's not eager to return again. The number of spinoffs and prequels might be chipping away at the specialness that made Star Wars so beloved in the first place. Sure, Maul was a beast in combat, trained by none other than Darth Sidious himself, and Qui-Gon had just come off an exhausting lightsaber duel earlier in the movie. But it still feels like his character deserved more of a legendary send-off. Unlike Obi-Wan's noble sacrifice in A New Hope , Qui-Gon was actively trying to survive and fulfill his purpose. He wasn't giving up — he was taken out. Maybe Neeson's criticism isn't just about his character's death being too easy, but more about how it undermined Qui-Gon's importance and capability. For a Jedi Master who was meant to be pivotal in Anakin's journey, getting stabbed after a simple feint feels like a weak exit. What do you think? Was Qui-Gon Jinn's death scene a letdown or a powerful turning point in the saga?
