(4 out of 5 stars)

"I first discovered John playing the piano on one of my Scott
Hamilton cds. As time went by, I started checking out John and
his accomplishments. Wow! the man has a resume that won't stop.For six years he was Tony Bennetts' pianist and band leader. That
alone is an amazing thing.John was around 55 when he got his first studio gig. That was
much too late. He should have been recording much earlier in his career.John has played with many different artists. He has a good list of cds that he has either been the leader of or been a valueable
contributor to.This cd Tony's Tunes finds John in top form. He really played his heart out with each tune. The only reason for not bringing
out the five stars for this cd was the repertoire. Some of the songs performed, I didn't particularly like."
