| Eddie Albert to me sounded like a lyric baritone, and he had a lovely voice. He's also featured as the lead in "Miss Liberty" and was one of the original Antipholuses in the original "Boys From Syracuse" introducing, among other songs, "This Can't Be Love". So Rodgers & Hart and Irving Berlin all cast him in leading roles, which included ballads, and of course, he had the acting ability to do tons of character roles over the years of a very long career. Below is linked him singing, quite beautifully, with Allyn Ann McLerie, from "MIss Liberty". | |

| That was one of songs I listened to before posting. I listened to a bunch of songs to refresh my memory. A very talented man, a brilliant actor. |

| Did you ever see him in "Captain Newman, M.D."? Really good film, but Albert is playing a character so different than I had ever seen him that i didn't even recognize him for a few minutes. For those of you who haven't seen it, Gregory Peck plays the title character, a doctor in a psychiatric ward during WWII basically treating patients to get them ready to go back to battle. A very funny Tony Curtis is the comic relief as his helper, Angie Dickinson head nurse (and love interest) and the three main patients dealt with are Eddie Albert, a very young Robert Duvall, and quite brilliantly, in an Academy Award nominated performance, Bobby Darin. It's kind of like a psychiatric M*A*S*H with some soon-to-be-famous faces among the other patients as well. Albert was also an honored war hero and was supposed to have been an all-around great guy. He lived until age 99. |
