Connie Francis
Only two weeks after recording The Exciting Connie Francis, her first adult pop album, Connie Francis was in a studio in England cutting a second one. While the earlier record featured some swinging uptempo material with big band backing, however, My Thanks to You was strictly a sting-filled ballad session, complete with choir backing. Francis ...

Al Hibbler

Much was made of his blindness (Hibbler knocked down many a door for vision-impaired performers, paving the way for Ray Charles in particular), but the real glory was his voice, an ...

Jazz fans will go for the version of "I Like the Sunrise" by Duke Ellington, a beautiful song sung by Hibbler with the lightness of a breeze. It's no surprise that he knows it well, as he recorded it already with Ellington as part of "The ...
