Tony Bennett-Close Your Eyes

[KentuckyJet]

Thats al Cohn behind Tony on sax. What a duo!

[DADRENO]

I remember this from the fifties!

My girl used to sing it in my ear as we danced.

Pleasant memories of fifty/sixty years ago.

@DADRENO Cherish those memories. Because these days I can't *hear* the girl nearly screaming into my ear at the nightclub dancefloor/moshpit. Music and dance is little more than a giant screaming mess now, and it's on a steady downward trend.

i liked tony bennet with a big band ,but the band was really singing on this track wow

[beeshor1]

I have discovered that this is the Ralph Burns' orchestra backing Tony and that is Zoot Sims on the saxaphone solo.

[beeshor1]

Is that the Basie band backing Tony? Whoever it is, they are really swingin'.

[KentuckyJet]

What a great song by a great singer!
