The word legend is overused, but not in this case.

RIP Tony. There wasn't a lot of class acts like Tony. He was actually in a class by himself.
|
RIP. Everybody seemed to like him...young and old. Always seemed to support the artists who came up after him.

I was 21 in 1994. In between Thanksgiving and Christmas that year, 92.7 WLIR (or WDRE) ran a promotion that if you brought a can of food to the venue (Mercury Lounge) you got to see a Tony Bennett concert. Well, Carol Vassallo and I took some cans of corn to the venue and saw a little 3 or 4 song set by Tony Bennett.
That was the first time I was at the Mercury Lounge...first and last time I saw Tony Bennett. He did not disappoint. |
Class guy and an old school gentleman. For years the SF Giants have played his song "I left my heart in San Francisco" after every Giants home win, good memories.
