I don’t know if any of you guys watched the “One Last time: an Evening with Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga” special on Sunday night. I PVR’d it and have been watching today and man, at 95, the man still has the pipes. It’s too bad that Alzheimer’s has started taking him away from us. It’s amazing that he still knows all the lyrics as there were no teleprompters for him but then, he has sung these songs so many times, they must be ingrained in his mind. My wife and I saw him about 10 years ago and absolutely loved the show. Although I’m not a big fan of hers, Lady Gaga initially started as a jazz singer and she does an incredible job doing these classic tunes on her own or in a duet with Tony. Hopefully she’ll put out a few jazz albums to keep the genre alive and fresh for the younger crowd.

Tony Bennett is really amazing to be going after all these years. And Lady Gaga? One you get past the meat dresses she's actually a very talented singer. It definitely isn't the first time they have collaborated

Neither is really my cup of tea.
But I certainly understand why Tony Bennett has had some career resurgences over the years.
