Synopsis by Mark Deming
British pop star Robbie Williams paid tribute to the swingin' style of Frank Sinatra and the great song standards of the 1950s on his 2001 album Swing When You're Winning, and this video -- recorded during a performance at London's Royal Albert Hall, with a 58-piece orchestra backing him up -- features Williams performing a set of classic standards and big-band favorites for an enthusiastic audience. Robbie Williams: Live at the Albert features Williams and the band swinging through 16 numbers, including "Mack the Knife," "Ain't That a Kick in the Head," "One for My Baby," "Let's Face the Music and Dance," "Beyond the Sea," and "The Lady Is a Tramp."
