Sinatra '65: The Singer Today is a 1965 compilation album by Frank Sinatra.
The album is a collection of various singles and sessions, highlighted by the hits "Luck Be a Lady", "Anytime At All", "Somewhere In Your Heart", "Stay With Me", and "Tell Her (You Love Her Each Day)." The version of "My Kind of Town" featured here is not the edited single version. This soundtrack recording contains a verse before the chorus that was edited out of the single version. It is possible the album title was a nod to the Beatles' December 1964 Capitol album Beatles '65, and potentially the Beach Boys' March 1965 Capitol album The Beach Boys Today!.
This album is available on compact disc, and all the songs are available on The Complete Reprise Studio Recordings .

Softly, as I Leave You is a 1964 studio album by American singer Frank Sinatra. Arranged by Ernie Freeman, several tracks such as "Softly, as I Leave You", "Then Suddenly Love" and "Available" departed from Sinatra's signature vocal jazz style by flirting with a more contemporary pop sound. The rest of the album is pieced together with leftovers from various early-'60s sessions, from many different arrangers and conductors.
My Kind of Broadway is a 1965 studio album by Frank Sinatra. It is a collection of songs from various musicals, pieced together from various recording sessions over the previous four years. The album features songs from nine arrangers and composers, the most ever on a single Sinatra album. While the title of the album is "My Kind of Broadway", both the Gershwin songs on the album "They Can't Take That Away From Me" and "Nice Work If You Can Get It" were written by George and Ira Gershwin for films and not for Broadway musicals.
Strangers in the Night is a 1966 studio album by Frank Sinatra. It marked Sinatra's return to number one on the pop album charts in the mid-1960s, and consolidated the comeback he initiated in 1965. Combining pop hits with show tunes and standards, the album bridges classic jazz-oriented big band with contemporary pop. It became Sinatra's fifth and final album to reach number one on the US Pop Albums Chart. Additionally, the single "Strangers in the Night" reached number one on the pop single charts, while "Summer Wind" has become one of Sinatra best-known songs, making numerous film and television appearances in the years since its release.
