Seventy-one year old musician and fan. Captivated since seeing the portrait of the Duke of Ellington. He and I belonged to the same organization! Of course love Tonys wonderful vocal style. May be better than Frank!

I’m sure Tony has no recollection of me, but I met him at a Hollywood party many years ago. At the time I wanted
to be a singer but things didn’t work out. At present I am a painter who has sold many pieces in Europe. I was
not aware of the fact that Tony was such a gifted painter as well as a vocalist. Viewing some of his paintings
on this page, ( six ) has been a most surprising and wonderful pleasure for me. I do wish Tony and his family
the very best in the years to come.
