Yes a good version - better than the later Sinatras - but Frank was losing his lower register as the years went by. Like Frank, Shirley also "gets" the lyrics and gives them space to breathe but unfortunately oversells the last verse.
The arrangement tries to bring this song to a climax - but that's a mistake because there shouldn't be one. This is a lament.
Shirley Bassey I STILL LOVE YOU...:-)

beautiful song, Summer Wind. It starts to sound like My Way toward the end. :)
