Professional Reviews

Down Beat (p.85) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Sheryl Crow is an elegant partner on 'The Man I Love'....Bennett's unique career arc may well be remembered as the only one whose encore outshined, and maybe outlasted, its first two acts."

JazzTimes (p.57) - "[T]he truly delightful surprise is Bennett's playful bantering with Lady Gaga on 'The Lady Is a Tramp.' Not since Crosby met Clooney have two pros demonstrated such effortlessly joyous chemistry."

Record Collector (magazine) (p.90) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[Lady Gaga] pulls out all the stops on 'The Lady Is A Tramp.' It's a thrilling performance, full of wit and self-mockery..."
