Revue de presse :
"The most intimate and thoughtful eulogy for 'the Voice'....It leaves you wanting to listen again to Sinatra's best songs."―Entertainment Weekly
"As succinct and laconically classy as its title."
―Adam Woog, Seattle Times
"Hamill's illuminations are considerable without ever stooping to facile psychologizing....He does a better job of placing Sinatra's saga in a social and political context than any of his biographers have....Why Sinatra Matters is most valuable in its explication of how Sinatra came to formulate a musical style that was a sound track to urban American life."
―Dan DeLuca, Philadelphia Inquirer
"A graceful reminiscence of Sinatra after hours serves as the frame for shrewd reflections on the singer's art, his personality, his audience, and--most interesting--his ethnicity, a subject about which Hamill, against all odds, contrives to say fresh and persuasive things."
―Terry Teachout, New York Times Book Review
"A brief but eloquent homage....Hamill succeeds--convincingly, with natty aplomb--in explaining why Sinatra, even now, matters."
―Tom Chaffin, LA Weekly

―Tom Chaffin, LA Weekly
Drawing upon intimate conversations over the course of many years, Hamill evokes the essence of Sinatra - examining his art and his legend from the inside. Shaped by Prohibition, the Depression, and war, Sinatra became the troubadour of urban loneliness; he was one of the few artists of the twentieth century to break through an ethnic parochialism that imprisoned so many turn-of-the-century immigrants and their children. With his songs, he enabled millions of others to tell their own stories, thus providing an entire generation with a sense of tradition and pride belonging distinctly to them. Products of the same urban landscape, both Hamill and Sinatra can be credited with giving the American city a voice. This is a rich and touching portrait of a twentieth-century icon.
