Frank Sinatra - Moonlight Sinatra (1965)

Driven by a set of lush, sparkling Nelson Riddle arrangements, Moonlight Sinatra is a low-key, charming collection. Although the basic concept is somewhat nebulous -- all of the songs have the word "moon" in the title -- Riddle wrote a series of charts that suggest a warm, lovely evening with a variety of tones and moods, from light Latin rhythms to sweet ballads. While the album is a minor entry in Sinatra's catalog, it is nevertheless an enjoyable, romantic listen. Half of the songs on Moonlight Sinatra were originally associated with Sinatra's idol Bing Crosby, making the album something of a loose tribute.
