mjp28 Posted July 21, 2023 Report Share Posted July 21, 2023 A real classic of good music known worldwide. Tony Bennett was the great interpreter of the American songbook. - BBC He delighted generations of audiences - from the 1950s to the 2020s - with stylish renditions of classic songs. In 1951, Bennett had his first big hit with Because of You. In 2021, Love For Sale - his second album of duets with Lady Gaga - followed it to the top of the charts. He was the oldest man to have a number one album in the United States and, in a seven-decade career, sold more than 50 million records worldwide. He won two Emmys and 20 Grammys (19 competitive trophies as well as a lifetime achievement award), but perhaps the greatest compliment came from none other than Frank Sinatra. "Tony Bennett", he said simply "is the best singer in the business. He excites me when I watch him. He moves me. He's the singer who gets across what the composer has in mind, and probably a little more." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
