    I would try Amazon. There you can listen to snipets of his songs and see what you like before buying. :)

    i love that song
    Had my eyes peeled both wide open, and I got a glimpse
    Of my innocence... got back my inner sense...

    The best Sinatra I have heard is a new live CD that came out last year for the Vegas 100th anniversary. Live at the Golden Nugget. Frank at his best.

    "Swing and Dance with Frank Sinatra" is another good compilation. It's actually his really old stuff and it's supposed to be for dancing so there you go. "Saturday Night" is one of my faves and opens the compilation. You can't go wrong with this one.

    No longer overwhelmed it seems so simple now.

    The answer to your query is in this one album, considered a classic and one of Frank's very best: "Songs for Swingin' Lovers." That is all you need.
