A Tony Bennett salute! Tony’s gone now, but was alive and well on the original air-date of this Bottomless Pit show.

Here’s my original post about it from back then:

On this week’s Bottomless Pit, for nearly the full hour, we shine the audio spotlight on the utterly great Tony Bennett, who celebrated his 90th birthday on August 3rd. Phyllis Schlafly is dead and gone but Tony Bennett still lives, breathes, and sings! Sometimes there’s Righteousness in this world…

Apologies for taking a cheap shot at Mrs. Schlafly, but I couldn’t resist; I think she’d just passed away when I wrote that post. Her name doesn’t come up at all during the program itself, I promise.

Then the show shifts gears for part 3:

We'll also hear some selections from a great CD that I just got my hands on (a friend gave me his copy, actually), called "Panorama City". It's a collaboration between Double-Naught Spy Car (genius, eclectic LA Rock band), and brilliant singer-songwriter Stew. This music will have you awe-struck and laughing and the same time.

All this and more on this quite-good installment of The Best of The Bottomless Pit..
