Our Take

Bill Evans and Tony Bennett's collaboration album, "Together And Apart," is a delightful romp through the annals of jazz history. The dynamic duo of Evans' intricate piano playing and Bennett's smooth crooning make for a match made in musical heaven.

From the opening track, "Young and Foolish," it's clear that these two legends are in top form, effortlessly blending their talents to create a sound that is at once nostalgic and fresh. Bennett's voice still has that silky smooth quality that made him a household name, while Evans' piano playing is as crisp and complex as ever.

The album's standout track, "The Touch of Your Lips," showcases the duo's chemistry in full force. Bennett's emotive delivery paired with Evans' exquisite piano accompaniment creates a truly magical moment that will transport listeners to another time and place.

While "Together And Apart" may not break any new ground in terms of musical innovation, it's a solid offering from two of the greatest talents in jazz history. Fans of Bennett and Evans alike will find much to love in this collaboration, which serves as a fitting tribute to their enduring legacy. So sit back, relax, and let the smooth sounds of Bill Evans and Tony Bennett take you on a musical journey like no other.
