Tony Bennett's "Something"

Tony Bennett's "Something" is a 1970 studio album by Tony Bennett.[2] As with Bennett's previous album, Tony Sings the Great Hits of Today!, it contains renditions of contemporary pop songs, including "Something", which had appeared on the earlier release. In recording Something, Bennett largely avoided the physical disgust he had with the previous album, a change that an Allmusic review credited to more tasteful arrangements.[1]
