Bennett has short chapters on various individuals (Sinatra, Sammy Cahn, Johnny Mercer, Duke Ellington, his father) which include his reminiscences of these individuals and their influence on his life. Each chapter includes a photograph of one of Bennett's paintings as well as the inside front and back covers. They are all very interesting to look at. There was one error in the book where it was mentioned that Johnny Mercer was buried in Hollywood but he is interred in his hometown of Savannah, Georgia. Bennett's co-author/editor should have caught this. Bennett's positive attitude and enthusiasm, not only for music, but for life, comes through loud and clear in this work.

At ninety, musician and singer Tony Bennett is as vibrant and productive as ever. In addition to his prodigious musical output, including albums, concerts, and personal appearances, this beloved and enduring artist has written his second book. In 2012's Life Is a Gift, Tony reflected on the lessons he has learned over the years. Now, in Just Getting Started, he pays homage to the remarkable people who inspired those lessons. In his warm and inviting voice, Tony talks about who and what have enriched his own life, including Charlie Chaplin, Judy Garland, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Cole Porter, Amy Winehouse, Fred Astaire, Lady Gaga, members of his family, significant places, and more. Just Getting Started chronicles the relationship Tony has enjoyed with each one of these legends, entertainers, humanitarians, and loved ones, and reveals how the lessons and values they imparted have invaluably shaped his life. As enchanting and unforgettable as his music, Just Getting Started is a beautiful compilation of reflections every Bennett fan will treasure, and a perfect introduction for those just getting to know this remarkable star and humanitarian.
