One
of
the
most
popular
male
vocalists
of
the
1940s,
Dick
Haymes
is
often
judged
as
having
possessed
one
of
the
best
baritone
voice
of
the
20th
Century!
In
1931,
aged
fifteen,
Haymes
made
his
debut
as
a
singer
in
a
hotel
in
New
Jersey
and
was
subsequently
asked
to
sing
for
the
summer.
He
then
headed
for
Hollywood
where
he
took
a
job
without
pay
singing
on
Los
Angeles
radio
station
KHJ.
To
supplement
his
income
he
found
work
as
an
extra
at
MGM
Studios
and
in
his
free
time
Haymes
composed
songs.
One
day
in
1939
when
he
was
trying
to
sell
his
songs
to
bandleader
Harry
James
he
ended
up
being
hired
as
a
vocalist.
His
deep
baritone
voice
quickly
won
over
the
critics
and
the
public,
and
he
remained
with
the
band
until
1942,
before
finding
a
home
with
Tommy
Dorsey
where
he
replaced
Frank
Sinatra.
After
going
solo
in
early
1943,
Haymes
soon
had
his
own
CBS
radio
network
program
and
a
recording
contract
with
a
major
label
which
gave
him
a
string
of
hits
through
to
1951
both
solo
and
with
Helen
Forrest,
another
ex-Harry
James
singer.
He
also
signed
a
contract
with
20th
Century-Fox
and
embarked
upon
a
very
successful
film
career,
during
which
he
starred
in
many
of
the
top
Fox
musicals
of
the
era,
including
"Irish
Eyes
Are
Smiling",
"Billy
Rose's
Diamond
Horseshoe"
and
"State
Fair".
Haymes
charted
in
America
a
total
of
45
times
from
1943
up
until
1951.
Of
the
25
tracks
featured
here,
many
are
appearing
on
CD
for
the
first
time.
Amongst
them
are
an
early
standard
recorded
in
1945
-
"Where
Or
When",
a
duet
with
Patty
Andrews
(of
The
Andrews
Sisters)
-
"Can
I
Come
in
For
A
Second"
and
the
four
country
and
western
tracks
he
recorded
in
1949.
