This is amazing, and we all need this break, and it's just beautiful.

Enjoy. And I will play their holiday albums again and again this joyous year. But check this out. Wow.

3. Thank you for posting the link to that video clip.
My mother was a fan of both Tony Bennett and Andy Williams. During the 60's I listened to their albums on the stereo that was in our basement on Saturday while my Mom did laundry and hung it up to dry. We never missed one episode of the Andy Williams Show either. It wasn't Thursday night without Andy.

This brings back all kinds of memories for me. Again thanks for the link.

5. I love this! No one does this kind of thing on TV anymore.
We don't have singers like this around much anymore.

Here is another Andy Williams goody -- with Antonio Carlos (Tom) Jobin on vocals and guitar -- and they're not singing "The Girl From Ipanema"(!)

7. was hoping for a different Andy... Thinking a lot about Andy Stephenson a lot lately
http://www.bradblog.com/?p=1545

Hoping his spirit is still fighting the evil machines. Thinking about him a lot of late, asking him to help us protect America.

All Souls Day, and Andy is on my mind :cry:

I'm an atheist but if I'm wrong and there is an afterlife

Andy is watching over this election

Paper Ballots. Hand Counted at Precinct level


We're gonna have the here in TN in 2010
This is the last election for the DRE's here
Thanks, in part to Andy, who came here in 4/05 and taught us well.
They'll still use scanners, but there is a reasonable mandatory audit required

Thank you so much for sharing! I was two when this was done, but I've always loved the sliding brass and the songs you snap your fingers to. Another reason I loves DU! :loveya:

10. I was 13 and NUTS about the Beatles. But even then, this was as good as it got.
This is brilliance. I hope these 80+ guys get it together again.

Love them both.

12. oh wow..
I had forgotten what a good voice Andy had, and that last bit where Bennett really let loose...shivers my spine.

Yeah....great voices.

Thank you for a much needed tummy smile.

13. Here's Andy briefly with Jobim. Wow, indeed. Just beautiful.
Less than two minutes, yet magical. I'm not a big-time fan, but I recognize greatness. Check this brief one out.

16. Kicked as a stress reducer the night before the election.
Folks seem to like this one.

With good reason.
