    3 out of 5 stars Wonderful, but...   May 24, 2008
     2 out of 2 found this review helpful

    Tony Bennett is like a fine wine that only improves with age. At 80, his voice is perhaps better than it's ever been. The material on this DVD from his DUETS album is impeccable and each one of his guests (with the possible exception of Stevie Wonder, who destroys "For Once in My Life") brings charm and style to the table. I would give this DVD full marks except for one extremely annoying thing: the "Tony Bennett is wonderful" interviews are slotted in DURING songs! Come one, guys: let us see and hear a full take of a song. Do the interviews after the songs or in a group at the end of the DVD. Don't interrupt the song for them. Even PORTRAIT OF AN ALBUM, the no-longer-available DVD of the making of Sinatra's L. A. IS MY LADY album, had full takes. (Perhaps on this album Tony and company never got through a full take?) I'm delighted to have seen Tony perform on this DVD. He's a marvel. But the producers of the DVD should be shot!


    5 out of 5 stars Almost didn't buy this... until...   January 1, 2008
    I read someone else's review who said that even though this is a documentary, it is a "must buy." YES!!! I've watched this a good 4 times from beginning to end, and love to just have it play in the background (that would be another 12+ times it's just played in the background). Tony's great... and it's simply beautiful to watch/listen to the interactions between he and all the other artists who he sang these duets with... THIS IS A GREAT GREAT PURCHASE!!! The only thing I would like to see different is to have 2x this ... it's almost too short at right at 60-70min... If you love music (any music) you've got to get this.

    In this video we see tony record his songs from the Duets album.
    The chemistry between tony and his guest is wonderful to see.
    For some guests ( michael buble )it was scary to record live with the tony bennett quartet.
    inbetween the song there are little conversations between tony and his duetpartners. highlights are bono and james tayler
    A true must for the real tony fan.



    5 out of 5 stars Listening and watching is a fun, positive experience!!   November 11, 2007
    Highly Recommend!!! Tony Bennett's voice and phrasing is still great. Almost all his fellow artists blend with and compliment his style.

    I received 1 order for 2 orders of this selection. When received and
    played it was inferior in quality, particular in conversation.
    I sent it back and received a replacement order. There was no improvement
    in quality, I sent that order back also, for refund.
    I have been unable to confirm refund. Please review and confirm.
    thank you, Ed Williams
