Arthur Prysock

Yep ! when I first heard this one I thought that "John" had sent me a "Billy Eckstine" by mistake but checking on "Wikie" and reading about him it is the right L/P !!
Its a great set of classic standards sung well !!
 Arthur Prysock Jr. (January 1, 1924 or 1929 – June 14, 1997) was an American jazz and R&B singer best known for his live shows and his baritone, influenced by Billy Eckstine.[5] According to his New York Times obituary, "his heavy, deep voice projected a calm, reassuring virility."
