I’ve always loved this cover and title! I’ve seen Ralph Sharon accompany Tony Bennett a half dozen times, the most memorable being opening night of the Newport Jazz Festival 1990 or 1991. The gala concert and party was held at the Tennis Hall of Fame and I sat at the side of the stage with Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee. Perhaps also aptly Mr. and Mrs. Jazz.
