I bought both of the new Tony Bennett DVDs and love them. I'm not a particular fan of that era of music, but these are timeless classics. One admires the smooth easy swing that flows so effortlessly from this 80 year old giant and senses the warm mutual respect with later generations of artists. However, many (most) of the songs are cut-off for interviews with the people working with him on the project. I'd rather hear the music -- keep the interviews separate, put them in the "Features" section ... Read More

Tony Bennett is like a fine wine that only improves with age. At 80, his voice is perhaps better than it's ever been. The material on this DVD from his DUETS album is impeccable and each one of his guests (with the possible exception of Stevie Wonder, who destroys "For Once in My Life") brings charm and style to the table.

I read someone else's review who said that even though this is a documentary, it is a "must buy." YES!!!

The only thing I would like to see different ... Read More

In this video we see tony record his songs from the Duets album.
The chemistry between tony and his guest is wonderful to see.
For some guests ( michael buble )it was scary to record live with the tony bennett quartet.
inbetween the song there are little conversations between tony and his duetpartners. highlights are bono and james tayler
A true must for the real tony fan.

Highly Recommend!!! Tony Bennett's voice and phrasing is still great. Almost all his fellow artists blend with and compliment his style.
