The Complete Capitol Singles Collection is a compact disc box set by the American singer Frank Sinatra, released on Capitol Records in 1996. The four-disc set contains all 45 singles released by Sinatra during his tenure at the label between 1953 and 1961. Of those, 25 made the Top 40 on the Billboard singles chart. It does not include releases specifically for jukeboxes or for extended play singles, with one exception. The original tapes were digitally remastered by Bob Norberg.

The packaging includes many photographs, detailed session notes, and a long essay by Will Friedwald, who explains that Sinatra followed a "singles aesthetic" that set these songs quite apart from the "concept" albums he was recording at Capitol simultaneously. Of the 96 tracks included in the box, six were not Sinatra singles. "Well, Did You Evah!," a duet with Bing Crosby, is the b-side to Capitol single 3507A "True Love" by Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly. The five others are tracks 23 through 27 on disc four: "Look to Your Heart" appeared on an EP single released to promote the 1955 television production of Our Town with Sinatra cast as the stage manager; two appeared on compilation albums; two others were introduced on this set.

Several songs are duets with other artists. "How Are Ya' Fixed for Love" and its flip "Nothing in Common" present Sinatra with Keely Smith, the usual singing partner of Louis Prima. The Pied Pipers, whom Sinatra had worked alongside while with Tommy Dorsey, appear with their new singer June Hutton on "Don't Change Your Mind About Me." Celeste Holm appears on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?"; those two songs along with the aforementioned Crosby duet "Well, Did You Evah!," "Mind if I Make Love to You?," and "You're Sensational" also appear in the 1956 film High Society. A doo-wop vocal group the Nuggets provide vocal backing for his rock and roll single "Two Hearts, Two Kisses," and the Ralph Brewster Singers are credited for the holiday single "The Christmas Waltz" with "Mistletoe and Holly."

Most tracks were arranged by Sinatra's mainstay while at Capitol, Nelson Riddle; exceptions are listed below. Orchestras consisting of Los Angeles session musicians were conducted by Riddle, with the following exceptions: "Lean Baby," "I'm Walking Behind You," and "I'll Remember April" conducted by Axel Stordahl; "Melody of Love" and "I'm Gonna Live Till I Die" conducted by Ray Anthony; "Well, Did You Evah!," "Mind if I Make Love to You?," and "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" conducted by Johnny Green; "The Christmas Waltz" and "Mistletoe and Holly" conducted by Gordon Jenkins; "How Are Ya' Fixed for Love," "Nothing in Common," "The Same Old Song and Dance," "Sentimental Journey," "American Beauty Rose," "I've Heard That Song Before," and "Five Minutes More" conducted by Billy May; and "Monique" conducted by Felix Slatkin.
