A Note From The Author

Dear Readers,

I want to let you know that I’ve been ill and am recovering nicely. Even so, I’m not well enough to blog every day … other than planned vacations, this is the first time since I started this blog three years ago that I’ve missed the song of the day.

So, I will be taking some more time off from blogging. I can’t wait to get back in the saddle and return to blogging about Tony Bennett.

Thanks,
Suzanne

Today We Are Three!

The Year of Tony Bennett is three years old today. That’s right — we’re a toddler now.

Here are some the highlights of the last year:

  • We got to meet Tony Bennett in person!
  • The Interactive Tony Bennett Discography is up and on its feet and is getting lots of traffic.
  • We have made new friends with Russia-based Tony Bennett Club.
  • While most of our traffic comes from the US, we get regular traffic from all over the world.
  • Audiences love Tony Bennett’s Quartet. After every concert, we get many searches for Mike, Gray, Marshall and Harold.
  • Everybody loves the clip of Tony and Alec Baldwin from Saturday Night Live.
  • And I’m still having fun doing this!

I’m starting up a new project called The Jazz Songbook–stayed tuned for an announcement in a few months.

And, as always, I am deeply grateful to Tony Bennett, RPM Productions, the people who continue to subscribe to the blog and our visitors from all over the world.

To quote Duke Ellington: I love you madly!

A Big Round Number

Today’s big round number is 100K. Or more precisely, 100,831.

That’s 100,831 page views for the two Year of Tony Bennett websites.

Blog: 65,322
Discography: 35,509

I am humbled and grateful for the support of the readers who visit one or the other of the sites. It’s taken 2.5 years to reach this number. I hope we can double it in half that time.

Thank you so much! You are all wonderful.

The Interactive Tony Bennett Discography

I’m happy to announce the completion of the first phase of development of The Interactive Tony Bennett Discography.

The site catalogs Tony Bennett recordings by albums, song and sessions, all of them linked together for easier navigation. In addition to a general search option, we offer a detailed search facility for albums, songs and sessions to let you, hopefully, find exactly what you’re looking for.

I hope you’ll all enjoy exploring the site and find the information you’re looking for.

Feel free to use the Contact Us form to send a message, complaint, correction or anything else on your mind.

Thanks and enjoy!
