Despite his retirement, Bennett continues to rehearse with his music director three times a week, Danny Bennett said in an interview. -- Wikipedia

It’s August 3rd and once again it’s

Time to think of Tony Bennett’s

Many years in entertainment

At the acme of attainment.


He sings a bit, though now retired,

But since he’s frail, it’s not required. –

He had a touching final saga

With impetus from Lady Gaga.
