Loved Tony Bennett - must have at least 20 of his records. Got a front row seat to see him in concert back in 2010 at the Mahalia Jackson Theater in New Orleans - what a fantastic show! One of my favorites of his is “Taking a Chance on Love” with Count Basie and his Orchestra. You can hear it below. #RIPTonyBennett https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gBEdaf2-ImA&list=PL3ME_UgKBYJ_K_54Jd4sJMSoEx39g0Ux2&index=19&pp=iAQB8AUB

#RIPTonyBennett ❤️ As I read the many tributes to the one and only Tony Bennett all day today I came across this story that connects Tony to Selma, the 1960’s Civil Rights Movement, Unitarian Universalism and Viola Liuzzo. ✊

#RIPTonyBennett and thank you for being a true ally.🙏🏿💔

"In an era when most white entertainers stayed on the sidelines, #TonyBennett marched with #MLK for racial equality and resisted apartheid"

Stevie Wonder at MSG. Surprise guest Tony Bennett comes out to sing For Once In My Life. Tony takes a verse - ok but not much power. Stevie takes a verse - nothing showy. Tony takes last verse and blows the roof off. A+ showman! Standing ovation from crowd and Stevie. #riptonybennett

I'm so sad to hear that Tony Bennett has left his heart in San Francisco for the very last time.

Rest in Peace, Tony. Now its golden sun will shine for you somewhere beyond the clouds.

I saw Tony Bennett perform 3x: once at Radio City Music Hall (w/ k.d. lang) and 2x on corporate gigs.

Radio City was amazing: on home turf in front of 3 generations!

He performed w/ the same level of commitment for fans or pharma reps. 5,000 people or 50. Same joy, same Tony.

RIP Tony Bennett. #riptonybennett #tonybennett

Tony Bennett’s second career peak began with Perfectly Frank, his 1992 album of standards associated with Sinatra. The band (the Ralph Sharon Trio) is in top form and its before he started putting “cool” guest singers on his records. My favorite song on it (with lyrics by Georgia’s own Johnny Mercer) is I Thought About You. Also this album’s version of Night & Day is much better than any of Sinatra’s. https://music.apple.com/us/album/i-thought-about-you/576708050?i=576708109 #tonybennett #johnnymercer #franksinatra #riptonybennett #music

There will never be another Tony Bennett. One of the all-time greats. Legendary. Was fortunate to see him in concert 20 years ago. “I Left My Heart In San Francisco”, “Rags To Riches”, “Boulevard Of Broken Dreams” were some of my favorites. Rest in power Tony B. #RIPTonyBennett #BlackMastodon #Mastodon

Another legend lost. I was fortunate to see Tony Bennett in 2019 and this man was the real deal, people. What an amazing career lasting well into his 90s. He may have left his heart in San Francisco, but his legacy will live on.
