Tony Bennett - Who Can I Turn To (1964) - VINYL, MONO - 24-bit/96kHz plus CD-compatible format

Not his peak effort, but nice stuff to be found herein. Especially the title track.

Like you got something better waiting for you to listen to? I doubt it.
Easily found on CD in the used bins, but that's the stereo mix. This is the mono mix. Only available from me.

Enjoy, please.


From allmusic:
Review by William Ruhlmann
"Tony Bennett returned to the Top 40 in late 1964 with his version of the Leslie Bricusse-Anthony Newley anthem "Who Can I Turn To (When Nobody Needs Me)," from Newley's Broadway show The Roar Of The Greasepaint, The Smell Of The Crowd. That song, like the rest of this album, was arranged and conducted by George Siravo, who made detailed ballad arrangements, using individual instruments and groups to echo and counterpoint the Bennett vocals. Still searching for new material, and finding it in works by Cy Coleman and Carolyn Leigh, as well as Mel Torme (whose "Got The Gate On The Golden Gate" recalled Bennett's musical connection to San Francisco), Bennett didn't discover anything to match the title track, and he re-recorded "Autumn Leaves" in a more uptempo framework. But the match of singer and arranger made for a consistent and effective album."
