Customer Reviews

The music never ends.......

Tony Bennett in the Studio: A Life of Art & Music This book exeeded my expectations. The paintings, reviews, and comments by friends reveal a Tony Bennett I had only just glimpsed - he is so much more. I have a new respect for his talents and life. I ordered copies for each of my sisters, artists, who will find it as enjoyable as I have.

Wonderful insight into the side of tony we know too little of

Tony is an accomplished artist, both in vocal delivery, and and his less known side of painting. It is wonderful to see the total artistry of Tony captured in this book, along with a complimentary vocal CD! The reader understands Tony's artistry more completely and appreciates his significant talent more thoroughly!

Tony Bennett in the Studio: A Life of Music and Art

Wonderful birthday gift for my husband. Great coffee table book. Who knew Tony was a painter too!!

Must buy for any Bennett fan

From the picture on the web site, I thought the book was the size of a CD. But, no, it's actually a large book full of paintings by Tony accompanied by interesting text. The enclosed CD includes only six songs, but they are surely among his best - including "Hi Ho", one of my favorites of all time. I've never heard anyone else sing it and after hearing Tony's version, I doubt that many would dare.

American Standard

This book is not only a product showing the life of Tony Bennett but also showing a link to our history in entertainment. I bought it because I want to be inspired to greatness and I've always love his music but had seen little of his artwork. If there was ever a chance to sit and talk to someone famous, this man is at the top of my list.
