Perfectly Frank is an album by Tony Bennett, released in 1992, recorded as a tribute to Frank Sinatra.
Part of Bennett's late-in-life comeback to commercial success, it achieved gold record status in the United States and in 1993 won the Grammy Award for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Performance.
In 2006 it was reissued with the same contents as Perfectly Frank: An American Classic Celebrates 80, in conjunction with Bennett's 80th birthday.
