Frank Sinatra Sends Several Albums Back To The Charts
Frank Sinatra claims five spots on Billboard's Jazz Albums chart, including two top 10 placements, ... More with several titles returning to the tally.

(Photo by) 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.
