I found his 85th birthday concert at the London Palladium on youtube. A real treat.

2. He's so cool

That is the one word that comes to mind, cool. Even when I was younger and Sinatra and others were alive, Tony was always the coolest cat around.

Peace

3. I'm still awed by his embrace of and encouragement to young musicians coming up today.

Such generosity and warm-heartedness.

Plus, he’s an amazing singer!

8. Absolutely agree on both counts.

9. I remember back in the 90's, he goofed around with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

And MTV ran a video of him singing “Steppin’ Out With My Baby” a number of times.
