I saw him at the Albert Hall when he was 89? I think. He could still sing, RIP

He was very close to lady gaga and Diana Krall, the duo albums were good, that last of the great crooners

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

Arguably the best crooner. Do you think he was the best crooner? Any crooner is arguably the best crooner.

I'm not qualified to judge the technical aspects of singing. It's just what you like at the end of the day. My personal tastes are too broad to enter into a discussion about who is the best anything.
