Description:

Tony Bennett's commercial renaissance, complete with MTV Unplugged appearance, hadn't yet peaked when this four-CD set appeared in 1991. Forty Years, however, makes clear just why Bennett's comeback was so richly deserved: from early hits such as "I Left My Heart in San Francisco" and his version of Hank Williams's "Cold, Cold Heart" to late-life triumphs such as "When Do the Bells Ring for Me," this is a testament to the singer's verve and unstinting good taste. --Rickey Wright

5Forty Years -- Fifty Years????  Mar 02, 2006
This is a terrific 4-disc compilation of Tony Bennett's career. I received it as a gift for Christmas of 1994.

Now I see a new 5-disc compilation of Tony's career has been released, entitled "50 Years: The Artistry of Tony Bennett".

I wonder if it's necessary to purchase and if some rare jewels have been unearthed in the subsequent 10 years. I think I'll check the Amazon reviews for the 5-disc compilation.

Terrific CD's to pop in the CD-changer and play in the house on a lazy weekend.

5Pure Bennett Gold  Mar 18, 2005
This is a fabulous 4-disc compilation of Tony in his musical prime from the 50's through the 80's. There are 87 tracks, and a 60 page booklet that contains essays by Ralph Sharon and Will Friedwald and extensive notes by Tony himself. The audio quality is outstanding, and Bennett's voice, diction, and the emotional depth of his phrasing and interpretation of the songs and lyrics is magical. This a must purchase if you collect Tony Bennett. It's a great sampling from his amazing catalog and further proof of the man's musical genius.

4I Won't Cry Anymore  Apr 26, 2004
Great but I agree with Mr Rucci. Why can't we get a record of one of Mr Bennett's greatest, I Won't Cry Anymore?

4I won't cry anymore  Jun 24, 2003
All I want to know is why Tony Bennett's hit recording "I won't cry anymore" is not on any of his albums you are selling.

5The Artistry of Tony Bennett  Feb 08, 2003
This is a great boxed set as far as it goes. I just wish that his release "Cinnamon Sinner" which charted as high as #8 in 1954 would be picked up on some compilation by this artist.
