Tony still has it and his duets partners were on top of ther voice. It doesn't get any better
As a new fan of Tony Bennett, I have to say he is talented in his music. A great CD to put you in a upbeat or relaxing mood depending on the song. Also great collaboration with other well known artists. Worth every penny.
I didn't give this 5 stars because I don't really care for some of the other artists. I have had Tony Bennett Duets for a while now and listen to it often. I guess it is a matter of taste. Love it. What a beautiful voice. I may not care for every song, but I do love many of them especially "It Had to be You".
Bennett. I am surprised at so many negative reviews. I think it is a help to the other artists to sing with Mr. This music is from my parents generation and this song was there song. I actually had it played at my wedding as a surprise to them. I especially liked KD Lang.
I would recommend this CD to anyone that likes classic music.
Mostly, from song to song, I hear Tony Bennett in a class by himself. And they sound, overall, like visitors into Tony's world. Seemed worth a listen. I picked this one up from the library. I just keep hearing Tony BEING there, and others not quite being there. It's like Tony's already in, already eons comfortable with the material, and humbly inviting people to come join him.
I sense they're having fun, if not a bit taken aback out of decades of respect for their elders.
He has an uncanny, easy confidence, a founding signature for that kind of signature song.
But his ease and solid delivery sort of keep him in his own realm while others swim around not quite getting there.
Top names, many songs I'm familiar with.
He swims like a dolphin in familiar waves doing all kinds of effortless tricks of light and sound, and he's generous to give the spotlight to his new friends.
He's the standard of those standards.
I appreciate his guests adding their colors and personalities and styles.
I don't mean to be mean.
But it's still fun and endearing imagining all those stars converging to pay homage to this almost Regular Joe American with the staying power of on point pipes so practiced, so perfectly at home.
i love this CD.and I love to play it for cocktail and dinner parties. ITs easy to listen to.
