The Year of Tony Bennett

An Appreciation of the Art and Music of Tony Bennett

July 23, 2023 By Suzanne Leave a Comment

CBS Sunday Morning tribute to Tony Bennett

This wonderful tribute aired on CBS Sunday Morning, with Mo Rocca and Scott Simng (who co-wrote Bennett’s 2016 book Just Getting Started).

One story about that night in Hot Springs Arkansas in 1961. A young high school student and saxophone player from Arkansas named Bill Clinton loved Tony Bennett, but was too young to be able to attend performance, so he stayed outside and listened to the show through a slightly open window.
