The album was the first that Sinatra recorded with Costa.[4] They subsequently worked together on Cycles (1968), Some Nice Things I've Missed (1974) and Trilogy (1980). Charles L. Granata, in his 2003 book Sessions with Sinatra: Frank Sinatra and the Art of Recording, felt the producer and mixing engineer of the album "chose to enhance the flat session tapes with just the right shower of reverberation, resulting in an appealingly glossy wet sound".[4]

Costa subsequently felt that the album "was and always will be, the hallmark of my existence" and Sinatra's son, Frank Sinatra Jr., felt that the album with its large orchestra and "lush string sound" marked a new era in his father's recordings.[4]
