O’s Notes: Tony croons on top of a powerful big band complete with strong brass and string sections. The band is bouncy and the lyrics swing. This is prime Bennett from 1957-1967. He is singing classics like “I Get A Kick Out Of You”, “Close Your Eyes” and “That Old Black Magic”. There are fourteen songs in all, a nice snapshot of a jazz legend.
