NO. 18 ON THE 2016 CHRISTMAS COUNTDOWN - FROM ONE OF THE GREATEST CROONERS IN HISTORY

THE LAST ICON THAT TAKES YOU BACK TO AMERICA'S MAGIC TIME IN MUSIC

I only saw the master songster and crooner Tony Bennett once. And it was indeed memorable. When he had everything turned off, except his mike, and gave an acappella version of Fly Me To The Moon - Well, let's just say - I understood why he has been pulling in audiences of all ages for 70 plus years. Whether he sings with a small group or a big band, he is an icon and modern performer all at once. He had his first hit, Because of You, in 1951. And he continues to tour and delight audiences the world over with an amazing clear voice today at 90 years of age. Truly amazing, don't you think?


And who better for a jazz interpretation of a Christmas standard? Please enjoy No. 18 on the 2016 CHRISTMAS COUNTDOWN - Tony Bennett performing Jingle Bells.
