David Fleming speaks with Michael Feinstein, at McCallum Theatre March 1st, with "Because of You: My Tribute to Tony Bennett." On the 2nd, down to San Diego. We hear a bit about Bennett - the music, the stylistic approach, the story telling aspect... We'll also hear about Gershwin, both George and Ira. Feinstein was Ira's assistant for some 6 years and has a few stories. Among those - having uncovered some otherwise lost Gershwin tunes!
