4 out of 5 stars The Best Is Yet To Come   December 6, 2007
Created for television Tony Bennett: An American Classic is a brief look at the career of the legendary crooner on his 80th birthday. Conceived by Rob Marshall and John DeLuca this is a well done if a little over the top docu-musical set in some of the venues that the singer has appeared in over his long career.br /br /Starting in a 52nd Street blues club Bennett performs Sing You Sinners with John Legend. He moves on to the early Columbia Studios for a duet with k.d. land and Chris Botti. The show continues on the set of a 1960's Variety show, then the Vegas stage of the Sahara before entering the 1990's on an MTV soundstage. The show ends with Bennett alone with a piano for I Left My Heart in San Francisco.br /br /Along the way we get snippets of narration from some of Hollywood's biggest names. This is a worthwhile if short experience that should not be missed by fans. In addition to the show we get some rehearsal footage with the dancers and four short making of type featurettes.

I wasn't sure what to think about my blind purchse of this DVD. When I sat down with the family to watch it we were messmerized by the quality and exceptional musicianship of the whole event staged to celebrate Tony Bennet's 80th birthday. The director won an Emmey Award for the DVD. I could see why. It is fantastic set design with a throwback to the 60's that was just so much fun to watch. The dancers really brought a cool feel to the whole event. I can't recommend this DVD enough. The whole family gave it a big thumbs up. The behind the scenes was a great bonus as well.My favorite performance was Tony and Stevie Wonder. Just superb!

Everything about this show is top notch. I have the Blu-ray version and the video and audio quality was superb. The production was outstanding and was patterned after some of the old time tv variety shows. Every guest that performed seemed to thoroughly enjoy themselves and were at the top of there game. I would highly recommend this in any format but the Blu-ray version really stands out.

Having been a Tony Bennett fan for 50 years I wondered if this DVD would be any different from others. It certainly was - a great use of guests and the dancing was superb. It really is a wonderfully produced show featuring a lot of Bennett favourites but packaged so differently. I loved this DVD and recommend it to all his fans and if you've not discovered Mr Bennett yet - start now!
