Sinatra: Best of the Best
Sinatra: Best of the Best is a 2011 double compilation album by American singer Frank Sinatra.

The album was promoted as having his classic hits from Capitol Records and Reprise Records together on one record for the first time ever. This 2 disc set is packaged in a lift top box and contains 5 collectible postcards of classic Sinatra images. The first disc contains the biggest hits from Frank Sinatra's career; the second disc contains the long out-of-print Live In '57 performance recorded in Seattle, Washington. Though this album was compiled and released by Capitol Records, the song "Night and Day" presented here is not the Capitol version, but the 1962 Reprise version from the album Sinatra and Strings.

Best of the Best is also available as a single disc with just the hits from disc one.
