Frankie Laine

Frankie Laine was one of the most popular singers of the late 1940s and the whole of the 1950s, selling more than a hundred million records worldwide over a career spanning seven decades. Born Francesco Paolo LoVecchio on 30 March 1913 in the Little Italy district of Chicago, the son of Italian immigrants, he credited his dynamic, unmistakable style above all to his early idols Louis Armstrong and Al Jolson.

His first public performances were in the church choir; during the Great Depression he hired himself out as a marathon dancer, setting an endurance record in Atlantic City with his partner Ruth Smith. In 1946 the songwriter Hoagy Carmichael discovered him, which led to a contract with Mercury. That's My Desire gave him his breakthrough in 1947, followed by numerous hits, among them That Lucky Old Sun, Mule Train, The Cry Of The Wild Goose and Jezebel.

In 1951 Laine moved to Columbia Records together with his producer Mitch Miller. His version of I Believe topped the British charts in 1953 and stayed there, in three separate runs, for a total of eighteen weeks; in all he scored four number-one hits in the United Kingdom. As late as 1974 he sang the title song to Mel Brooks' film comedy Blazing Saddles. With his success he helped the solo singer eclipse the big bands and smoothed the path for colleagues such as Tony Bennett, Elvis Presley and Tom Jones. In 1996 he was honoured with a lifetime achievement award into the Songwriters Hall of Fame; he died on 6 February 2007.
