Eddy Howard did not have a remarkable voice, unlike most male singers of the big band era, but he made a good career with what he had. Part of that was due to his skillful use of the vocal trio, which is not in evidence on this disc. Part was due to the a canny choice of songs he sang and making the most of what voice he had. He didn't show off, it wouldn't have worked. He just sang the songs with a modicum of originality and a maximum of necessary correctness. And of course, he had the band, which was a good one and which would contribute occasional brilliant interludes. "She's Funny That Way' is a slightly quirky song that fits Howard's understated but personal style very well. The emotional content, a man musing about why he's lucky enough to have a woman in love with him, comes across in his hands. "The Rickety Rickshaw Man" is a simple story set to music, a description of a romantic character who would probably end up badly in real life, but does all right in the fantasy world of 1940s pop music. I don't think either of these were big hits for Howard but they are solid examples of his work and were certainly not failures.

 Labels as references to 1078 added. These are the same recordings anyway, that's why they have been linked.

 I bow to your superior knowledge. I entered it the way I did because I couldn't find any references to 1078, and the YouTube link to 7192

Moved your label images to the newly created entry for Majestic 7192, actually released some months earlier, and linked both entries. Different cat#, different entry on 78 RPM.

Not sure about the release date of this one here. The former link to Billboard Jan 11, 1947 was a mistake. The cat# 1078 would line up perfectly in Sep 1946, but #7192 was still present in Billboard of Feb 1, 1947
