[@bucksix1]

I agree 100%. Even if you leave out the word jazz your comment is still 100% correct

[@nycphillie]

Extraordinary talent......did it all at 63 years old here.

I'm a 58 yo Brit and, whilst I had heard of Mel Torme, I hadn't listened to him before now. Wow, he's phenomenal and makes Frank Sinatra look dull. The arrangements are so exciting, incredible and beautiful. The Americans are the only ones who can do it.

Lived in LA in the 80's and Hollywood Bowl had Wednesday night Jazz at the Bowl. $7.00 bleacher seats. Saw Mel with Ella Fitzgerald several times. Just mesmerizing when they "scat" together.. May they both RIP 🙏 ❤
