Featuring duets with: Amy Winehouse (her last known recording!), Lady Gaga, Aretha Franklin and many other musical legends. 180 gram audiophile vinyl. In a 1965 interview with LIFE, Frank Sinatra said: "For my money, Tony Bennett is the best singer in the business. He excites me when I watch him. He moves me. He's the singer who gets across what the composer has in mind, and probably a little more. But it is the tragic and premature passing of Amy Winehouse that makes this album truly special; her appearance on the duet "Body And Soul" is the last known recording of the British songbird, and it is a truly heartrending version of the 1930 jazz classic.
