Eddie Fisher...
marries to Debbie Reynolds,Elizabeth Taylor and Connie Stevens, father to Carrie Fisher.
crooner from the pre-pop era, but a pop star in his own right in the late 1940s-mid 1950s....
this album contains his siganture tune in "oh,my papa"...the other songs are in the same mold as that that one...
nothing bad on here, nothing great neither IMO, just a steady album of pre-pop easy listening material...
i only bought this album because i wanted "oh my papa"...it was my Grandfathers favourite song, he always used to sing it around me and it has always bought back fond memories of my childhood, and of a fine man,one who molded me into the guy i now am...RIP Ronald Harbord.
Eddie died aged 82 in 2010 following complications from hip surgery in his home town of Philadelphia,PA.
