An Appreciation of the Art and Music of Tony Bennett
Attention iPhone and iPad Users … Get your free Tony Bennett app from iTunes.
I downloaded the app yesterday and recommend to all. Here’s a screen shot:
The app is a lot of fun and has much great content: tour dates, photographs and news clippings, a gallery of Tony’s paintings, news, and much more.
The Year of Tony Bennett gives it an A+.
The Year of Tony Bennett would like to wish our readers and subscribers (as well as Tony Bennett and everyone at RPM Productions) a Happy Valentine’s Day. To help you celebrate, we offer this video of a Tony Bennett singing My Funny Valentine from a 1979 concert at Jubilee Hall in Edmonton, Canada.
My Funny Valentine was written by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart in 1937 for the musical Babes In Arms.
Tony Bennett’s 85th birthday concert at the London Palladium is available to view in its entirety on YouTube.
It’s been four months since I’ve seen Mr. Bennett in concert. This YouTube video hits the spot!
We are big fans of Antonia Bennett and enjoy hearing her sing with her Dad at concerts.
Miss Bennett also has her own solo recording career. Here she is singing “Always Here,” courtesy of SXSW (South By Southwest) 2011.
Great video of Tony Bennett singing one of my favorite of his songs, with some really great drumming from Clayton Cameron.
