America, I Hear You Singing is a 12" vinyl LP album recorded and released in 1964 by American singer Frank Sinatra with Bing Crosby and Fred Waring's Pennsylvanians.

The record is a collection of patriotic songs that were recorded as a tribute to the assassinated president John F. Kennedy.

The album received its first release on CD in 2010. The tracks featuring Frank Sinatra were also included on the 1995 box set The Complete Reprise Studio Recordings.

Variety liked the album commenting: "This is an impressive gathering of top names for a patriotic paean in a swinging format. Backed by Fred Waring’s orch. and chorus, Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra singly and in tandem deliver a fine collection of flag-wavers."

All tracks feature Fred Waring and the Pennsylvanians.
