My dad always said Bennett was a far better singer than Sinatra.
As a long time Sinatra fan, I'd have to agree with you dad.
Bennett was a much better singer.
For my money, Frank was a much better crooner when he was young.
As he aged even slightly, his singing morphed into a different style, and he became more of a performer than a good singer.
Bennett tho...
There seemed a period where I thought he lost his voice to age, and it saddened me.
Then out of nowhere it and he were back.
He also did great duets with younger singers.
I like his time with K.D. Lang, and of course Lady Gaga.
Gaga had quite a sweet relationship with Bennett and I think there were times when only she could break through the fog.
I will miss Tony Bennett.
Seriously.
