The Year of Tony Bennett

An Appreciation of the Art and Music of Tony Bennett

Song of the Day: I Concentrate On You

The Song of the Day for September 21, 2012 is I Concentrate On You.

About I Concentrate On You

This song was written by Cole Porter (music and lyrics) in 1940 for Broadway Melody of 1940.  I Concentrate On You has been recorded Frank Sinatra, Dinah Washington, Judy Garland, Carmen McRae,  and, of course, Fred Astaire, among many other jazz and popular performers.

About This Version

This version, from the 1993 Steppin’ Out album was arranged by Tony Bennett and Ralph Sharon. I especially love the simplicity and elegance of this arrangement.
