Tony Bennett i Lady Gaga snimaju jazz album


Nakon što su snimili duet "The Lady Is a Tramp", Tony Bennett i Lady Gaga snimiće i zajednički jazz album, potvrdio je legendarni pevač. On kaže da ga je Gaga pozvala i rekla da želi da snimi jazz album sa njim, što je on odmah prihvatio. Bennett nije želeo da priča o detaljima, osim da će na snimanjima biti angažovan veliki swing bend. Takođe je dodao da je Gaga sjajna jazz pevačica, što će na ovom izdanju ljudi i sami primetiti.
S obzirom na to da je Gaga više puta izjavila da želi da snimi jazz album, izgleda da će joj se to napokon i ostvariti. No, dok čekamo podsetimo se već postojećeg dueta.

http://www.billboard.com/photos/stylus/1049579-tony-bennett-amy-winehouse-617-409.jpg

Fondacija Amy Winehouse, kojom upravlja njena porodica, godinu dana nakon smrti pevačice počeće da dodeljuje nagradu Inspiration. Gala događaj u Njujorku planiran je za oktobar, a prvi dobitnik biće Tony Bennett, sa kojim je Amy snimila duet "Body and Soul" neposredno pre smrti.
Fondacija Amy Winehouse funkcioniše sa obe strane Atlantika - u Engleskoj novac se prikuplja za prevenciju bolesti zavisnosti, dok u Americi fondacija se bavi prikupljanjem sredstava za dodatne edukativne programe u kojima se mladi bave muzikom.

Tony Bennett Lady Gaga The Lady Is A Tramp


Tony Bennett i Lady Gaga predstavili su spot za njihov duet, "The Lady Is a Tramp", koji se nalazi na Bennetovom albumu "Duets II". Baš kao i u prethodnom spotu (duet sa Amy Winehouse, "Body & Soul"), vidimo dva umetnika kako u studiju izvode svoju verziju klasika iz tridesetih godina prošlog veka.
Kako sve to izgleda, možete pogledati ispod ovog posta.
