Steve isn't nearly the singer his dad is, but then, pretty much nobody was. Even as old as Mel is here he still sounds great and only Ella and Louis A. could scat with him. This is one of Mel's best songs (but the recording quality is none too good, alas). He truly was a giant of a jazz singer.
He lives in Appleton, Wisconsin. He was interviewed and sang on Green Bay TV's Fox 11's "Good Day Wisconsin"this morning(Nov. 5).It should be on their website. He's doing a Mel Torme tribute concert this weekend at Lawrence University in Appleton.
This is our Uncle Steven and our "step" grandpa Mel. We love you so much! Steven: Halle and Jake say HI and to tell Ruby, Angela, and Sunny we say HI and we love you all!
You never sounded so good, your dad was sick yet came through for you. Guess that's what dad's do. You were very lucky to have such a great man in your life.

Steve is an outstanding musician and singer with a vibrant personality. He has his own following and rightly so.

How neat to see Mel singing with his son! Never even knew he had one! Seems Steve inherited his dad's talent/style.

I didn't realize Mel Torme had a son who sings. Shame we don't hear more from him. Thanks for posting.

I feel better after seeing this wonderful little piece, I miss Mel's singing so. Not a day without one of his song playing around me.
Merci beaucoup

Wow! We all know Mel was in a league of his own, but listen to Steve... Pretty damn exciting in his own right and deserves to be heard more.
