Tony Bennett

As someone who's a fan of Bennett's music, I was curious to learn more about the man behind the iconic voice. Unfortunately, this audiobook left me feeling a bit underwhelmed. While Virtual Voice's narration is solid, it sometimes struggles to convey the emotional weight of Bennett's stories, particularly when it comes to his complicated relationships with family and friends. One specific critique I have is that the pacing feels a bit uneven, with long stretches of introspection that can feel like a slog. That being said, there are moments of genuine insight and wit scattered throughout the narrative – like Bennett's hilarious anecdote about working with Judy Garland. Still, fans of Bennett's music may find themselves wanting more depth and nuance in his life story.
