Tony Bennett hit a homerun last year with the release of Duets II. Working his magic to pull in some of the best and most unexpected collaborations in music, his singles with Lady Gaga and Amy Winehouse alone helped the album reach the #1 spot on not only Billboard’s jazz chart but also peaking at #1 on the Billboard 200. The album went Gold in the US, Mexico and Poland, Platinum in Canada and two times Platinum in Australia. If you haven’t had a chance to listen to the album, it’s definitely worth it.
Now, Tony’s duet with John Mayer has been given the video treatment in preparation for the release of the Duets II: The DVD which will available for purchase on March 6. As we take a look inside the studio’s recording, John and Tony share a little lounge banter between lines in the verses before nailing those classic American songbook harmonies that make these songs such gems. There is no doubt, regardless of Tony’s age, he’s stil got it. Give a listen to their rendition of “One For My Baby” below.
