Together At Last / A Perfect Combination - The Complete Sessions 1958-1959 [ORIGINAL RECORDINGS REMASTERED]
The complete and only collection of studio recordings by these two legends of music together! In the past these recordings have been subject to intrusive audience overdubbing but here they are free from this and are in genuine stereo and wonderfully re-mastered. The warm, husky tenor of Tony Bennett with his jazz phrasing and spontaneity lends himself perfectly to the ultra swinging sound of Basie's orchestra on classics such as "Pennie's From Heaven", "Jeepers Creepers" and "When I Fall In Love. The franticly funky bongos playing on "Ol' Man River" is worth the CD price alone. Full discography of the sessions with comprehensive notes on the artists, and with the continued popularity of Tony Bennett this is quite simply a fantastic set.
