The Year of Tony Bennett

An Appreciation of the Art and Music of Tony Bennett

July 4, 2017 By Suzanne 2 Comments

Happy Birthday to Mitch Miller

The Year of Tony Bennett would like to recognize the anniversary of the birth of Mitch Miller on July 4, 1911.

I uncovered this video of Tony, Mitch with his oboe, and Hugh Hefner at the Playboy Mansion from 1969. I kid you not. I will state that I don’t think Tony was cut out to smoke a pipe or, as in this video, use it as a prop.
