Sinatra & Company is an album by American singer Frank Sinatra released in 1971.

The first side of this album is in the Bossa nova style, and the second side is influenced by soft-rock, featuring a couple of standards from John Denver.

The bossa nova recordings were originally cut for a follow-up to the widely acclaimed "Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim". Arranged by Eumir Deodato, the recordings had been completed and the artwork finalized when the decision was made to retrench. Some of Sinatra's less mainstream albums hadn't performed well, and anxieties drove the creation of this hybrid.

Two songs recorded at this session, "Bonita" and "Sabiá", were omitted from the final cut of this album, but were released on the 1979 compilation, "Sinatra-Jobim Sessions".

A few 8 track versions of "Sinatra-Jobim" did survive, and are now eagerly sought after by collectors [http://www.8trackheaven.com/sinatra.html] .
