Sounds a lot like "A Bronx Tale" and that's because this film is called "A Bronx Tale | The Original One Man Show". We finally filmed my one man show and put it in a cinematic format that has never been done before.

In addition to the big announcement, I will be going through each track from the original "A Bronx Tale" movie and giving my insight as to how and why the songs were chosen. I get compliments on the soundtrack of "A Bronx Tale" all of the time, so I figured that I could spend a whole episode on it.

We had some of the greatest artists and greatest songs of all time in this movie. Not to mention, it was the first time a Beatles track was used in film. Some of the other artists include Dion & The Belmonts, Miles Davis, James Butler, The Rascals, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra & much more.
