1957 was a particularly prolific year for Frank who was at his artistic peak at that time. Not only did he release 3 of his best albums on Capitol along with a Christmas disc but he also took the lead in 2 movies – “The Joker Is Wild” and, what many consider to be his best movie, “Pal Joey”.

CD1 tracks 1-12 - 'Close To You', tracks 13-23 - 'A Swingin' Affair'. CD2 tracks 1-4 – ‘A Swinging Affair', tracks 5-16 – ‘Where Are You?, tracks 17-23 bonus tracks.
