(1974)Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating Allmusic [1] Ol' Blue Eyes Is Back is a 1973 album by the American singer Frank Sinatra.
Sinatra returned from his brief retirement with the appropriately titled Ol’ Blue Eyes Is Back. Released amidst a whirlwind of publicity, the album was a commercial success, earning gold status and peaking just outside of the top-ten on the UK and Billboard album charts.
Additionally, a TV special followed which was nominated for two Emmy awards -- Best Directing a Comedy/Variety Programme and Outstanding Comedy/Variety Special. Directed by Marty Pasetta and produced by Howard W. Koch Ol' Blue Eyes Is Back was a glowing success made all the more memorable by a special appearance from Gene Kelly who had first co-starred with Sinatra 30 years prior in Anchors Aweigh.
