Re: Tony Bennett Interview!

Interesting interview -thanks for posting it. Shame the audio was muted on the songs though. Would really like to hear some of these duets -in particular the one with Aretha Franklin which should be quite something -such a contrast of styles.
Amazing to think he's 85 -in great shape, don't know how he managed to be "Blond" at the Palladium on Monday!
As to the art -the paintings look to have a definite style of their own -i'm not much of an expert either but i liked what I saw!

Class Aretha -she had a much harder song than Lady GaGa who pulls it off very well though. Never really considered her as much of a singer before -thought it was all image but she actually isn't bad at all in this.

Frank Sinatra and Bono is my all-time fave duet: Frankie is Frankie and Bono is to die for!

Was he blond at the Palladium? Maybe it's the lighting he looks grey to me! Paintings look ok nothing special though!

Here is the TV ad they were showing on British TV. I muted the sound because You Tube have some kind of copyright filter that instantly recognises and blocks some material that they must have on a computer list. So to save having this occur I muted it myself before hand!



Try uploading a video with a Fleetwood Mac song on it and it will be blocked instantly within seconds of uploading it!
