Free Music Notes for Tony Bennett Sings the Rodgers and Hart Songbook
Free Music Review: fine tribute to Rodgers and Hart--BRAVO, TONY BENNETT !!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Tony Bennett Sings the Rodgers and Hart Songbook is a single CD with a whopping twenty-six songs, all wonderfully performed by the great Tony Bennett. Tony's voice is in excellent form throughout this album; and the music that accompanies him is very fine as well. The quality of the sound is excellent and that cover art is very nicely done.
"This Can't Be Love" gets a fine treatment from Tony who plays with the tempo and keys a bit to put his own mark on this classic ballad. The musical interlude is very jazzy but it still works wonders for "This Can't Be Love." What a great start for this album! "The Lady Is A Tramp" also gets the royal, jazzy treatment from Tony and the musicians as they sing and play this to perfection--and beyond! Tony's excellent diction bolsters his performance and he never misses a beat, either! In addition, Tony makes good on "Manhattan;" this classic love song that is so optimistic truly shines just as brightly all these years later--and I love every minute of it. "Isn't It Romantic?" is another favorite tune of mine on this album; Tony gives this so much feeling that I'm convinced that Rodgers and Hart would both be so proud!
"I Could Write A Book" features Tony Bennett squarely in the spotlight--right where he belongs! "I Could Write A Book" has a very, very pretty melody and this enchants me quite a bit. "Thou Swell" is another highlight of this album; and I'm sure you'll enjoy this timeless ballad very much. "The Most Beautiful Girl In The World" has such a gentle treatment from Tony Bennett that I'm truly very impressed; and the horn works great for the musical arrangement, too. "You Took Advantage Of Me" is a number I have always liked; and when Tony sings it this number glows brilliantly!
"My Heart Stood Still" is another charming love ballad with a fine musical arrangement; and listen for "My Romance." "My Romance" features Tony's vocals squarely front and center--and that's all right by me! "This can't Be Love" has an alternative arrangement that also sounds quite strong; and other extra tracks include "The Most Beautiful Girl In The World" and "I Wish I Were In Love Again."
Tony Bennett could always sing with the best of them--and he's still going strong! We are all so much better off for his sharing his talents with us. Tony Bennett fans will love this CD; and people who like music by Rodgers and Hart will want this,
