5.0 out of 5 stars If I Didn't Care About Them Ink Spots. . ., April 9, 2003

I have been listening to the incomparable Ink Spots since the 1940s and I'm still stirred by their music. I bought my first Ink Spot album at the age of 14. When I played it I was hooked right away. I still have a couple of their old 78 record albums. They have been my favorite vocal group these many years. I just couldn't bring myself to get rid of my old albums. I liked Bill Kenny's high pitched voice singing "If I Didn't Care" & "We Three." There will never be another great vocal group like The Ink Spots.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another "mixed" bag from the 50's, April 21, 1999

This review is from: If I Didn't Care (Audio CD)

The disc starts off with Orlando Roberson on trks. 1 & 2, that ensemble on trk. 3. Then it shifts to one of the Deek Watson groups with Gene Miller on vocals. All quite good, but another example of what happened to the Ink Spot presence after the Decca faction split up, and Bill Kenny became a solo artist. There were too many Ink Spots!

This review is from: If I Didn't Care (Audio CD)

The Ink Spots of course. My father was of the generation of the IS, and we had the album this is largey based from. Very happy to see it on CD, some lesser-known stuff. Their harmonies are soemwhat measured and sedate by R&B standards, but very enjoyable and effective. On "Do I Worry" and "I Don't Want to Set The World on Fire," we have classic examples of this apporach. Smooth backgrounds with measured but lovely leads. But our heroes REALLY rock out on an uptempo version of "Old Man River." The fun our heroes had recording this is truly infectious. They trade off on some really jively vocals on this usually seriosu number an even the background musicians get in on the joy with an appealingly winking electric guitar punctuating some of the vocals.

If you know the Ink Spots from Redd Foxx's impressions on "Sanford and Son," you're in for a revelation. Enjoy.
