Nothing But the Best is a compilation album by Frank Sinatra that contains hits from his work with Reprise Records.

Notable tracks

This is the first compilation album to feature the extended version of "Strangers in the Night" that's fade contains more of Sinatra's scat sounds that were originally cut. Since Nothing But the Best was a Reprise compilation album, "Come Fly with Me" wasn't the famous original version.

The special edition of the album featured the tracks of 12 Songs of Christmas. Other editions of the album featured one (or both) of two bonus tracks: "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down (And Write Myself a Letter)" and "Body and Soul." There was also a special edition that featured a DVD featuring the the tracks listed below.
