Some Nice Things I've Missed is a studio album by Frank Sinatra, released in July 1974. It was recorded from December 10, 1973 to May 24, 1974, in Hollywood. The album runs 28 minutes and 52 seconds and was released on Reprise Records (catalog F 2195). It mostly features songs that had become popular for other artists, reflecting Sinatra catching up on music released while he was retired from 1971 to 1973.

The album was produced by Don Costa (on most tracks), Jimmy Bowen (one track), and Sonny Burke (two tracks).

In Sinatra’s discography, Some Nice Things I've Missed comes after Ol' Blue Eyes Is Back (1973) and before The Main Event – Live (1974).

A small cultural note: the album is referenced in the 1974 Kojak episode Cross Your Heart and Hope to Die, where Sinatra and the record appear in scenes. In that episode, Kojak carries a copy of Some Nice Things I've Missed. Around the same time, actor Telly Savalas (who played Kojak) also released a cover of the song "If," which Sinatra performed on the album, as a single released a few months later.
