If you haven't read them yet, the books by Charles Granata and Will Friedwald on Sinatra's recordings/recording sessions are great.
My husband plays trombone...he comments from time to time on the brass, etc., when we're listening :). He's also spent some time studying a couple of Riddle's arrangements (obtained from the university in Tucson which has Riddle's collection)...he's been teaching himself arranging as a hobby and is fascinated by that kind of thing. Stories like May arranging "Come Fly With Me" are something else, huh?
