ALL SELECTIONS ARE SUNG BY JACK SMITH. MR. SMITH WAS A POPULAR RADIO & RECORDING ARTIST FROM THE MID 1920'S INTO THE 1930'S WITH A BRIEF COME BACK IN THE 1940'S - SEE THE LAST 2 SELECTIONS IN THIS RELEASE. HIS CAREER WAS LAUNCHED ON HIS UNUSUAL "WHISPERING" STYLE OF SINGING. THIS STYLE WAS ACTUALLY CREATED BECAUSE OF A WWI INJURY THAT PREVENTED HIM FROM SINGING AT A LOUDER VOLUME. THIS STYLE CAUGHT ON & THERE WERE MANY IMITATORS BUT "WHISPERING" JACK SMITH WAS THE ORIGINAL.
