Older man's voice that got me onto chills...


Hi I've recently pulled out Billy Eckstine Sings with Benny Carter and realized I have chills during listening. This is very emotional and sincere performance one who loves music should experience.

Amen to that, as good a male singer of "The American Songbook"
as we are ever liable to hear.

A true disgrace and evidence of the very low level of American taste that he is virtually forgotten.
Billy Eckstine is one of the very best vocalist regardless of era. His late 1950s recording "Imagination" is one that I've own for years and still listen to very often. He's unbelievably under appreciated.
