American jazz singer, Tony Bennett turned 95-years-old today (August 3,) and to celebrate, he got together with Gaga to release a rendition of the Cole Porter classic, “I Get A Kick Out Of You.”

Not only did they release the single together, but they dropped the long-awaited launch date for their second album, Love for Sale. The star-studded record will be released on October 1. 

This album will be Bennett’s last studio album, in which he will showcase the Cole Porter Songbook. It will include duets and solos from Gaga and Bennett. 

Taking to Twitter to announce the release of the album, Gaga tweeted, “Today, I am so excited to announce that our new album ‘Love for Sale’ will be released October 1.”

Love for Sale follows their 2014 album collaboration when they released their 15-track collection, Cheek to Cheek. The upcoming deluxe album is just under 45-minutes long.

Bennett is celebrating his 95th birthday with two final live music performances on August 3 and 5 at New York City’s Radio City Music Hall. The performances mark the last time Gaga will take the stage with Bennett, due to his battle with Alzheimer’s disease.

Gaga tweeted today, “One Last Time. An evening with @itstonybennett and me at Radio City Music Hall on August 3rd & 5th. I am so honored and excited to celebrate Tony’s 95th birthday with him at these special shows.”
