Comments and Reviews


fixbutte 22nd Dec 2014		Both "You'll Never Know" and "Comin' In On A Wing And A Prayer" belonged to the most popular songs of 1943. In the middle of the first musicians' strike (Recording Ban, 1942-44), the small Hit label was the first to release recordings of them, on this disc by Willie Kelly with anonymous musicians, possibly recorded across the US border. Decca and Columbia, however, soon followed with recordings of singers with vocal groups, sans musicians, and the Decca issues became the much bigger hits ("You'll Never Know": Dick Haymes with The Song Spinners, BB #1, Jul 24 - Aug 14, 1943; "Comin' In On A Wing And A Prayer": The Song Spinners, BB #1, Jul 3 - Jul 17, 1943). "You'll Never Know" by Willie Kelly (#6 on Billboard's national Music Popularity Chart): "Comin' In On A Wing And A Prayer" by Willie Kelly (#2* on Billboard's national Music Popularity Chart): * according to Joel Whitburn, but possibly song on Billboard's National Sheet Music Best Sellers (with no artist listed) mistaken for Kelly's record.
