5 out of 5 stars I love this man.....   July 17, 2007
  11 out of 11 found this review helpful

When I first saw this program on PBS, the word that came to mind was, "Wow!" I love Tony Bennett. The man is the epitome of smooth soul. His expressiveness is incomparable and he is truly a class act. To see him going strong at eighty years old genuinely warms my heart. What makes this show so special is the intimate look it takes at the process that Bennett and his singing partners went through to put the album together. We see his recording sessions [and interviews] with vocalists like Diana Krall, Stevie Wonder, k.d. lang, John Legend, Billy Joel, and Michael Buble, as well as the amazing Colombian singer/songwriter Juanes. It truly is heartwarming to hear the musicians fondly and respectfully speak about Tony Bennett, his wonderful legacy, as well as the mark he continues to leave on today's music world. The collaborations are wonderful and eclectic. We hear songs like "Swing On, You Sinners," and "For Once In My Life" in the distinctive crooning and spontaneous style that Bennett has made famous. There really is no duplicating the kind of confidence and spirit that emerges from these sessions. My hope is to listen to the companion CD, and hear how the songs really turned out, once the final edits were done.


5 out of 5 stars Great entertainment that anyone would enjoy!   July 13, 2007

This is an amazing dvd that is entertaining to watch and enjoyable to listen to. Everyone should be able to connect with this as Tony Bennett crosses over so many genres of music and engages them into this upbeat collection of songs. We have played it during parties and while enjoying a quiet evening at home and have enjoyed it every time!
