Ink Spots - If I didn't Care

[@desmondpatrick1892]

The lead vocalist exudes pure unadulterated talent.What a voice.

[@JoshCarpio1011]

Bill kenny

[@fuzzynumbers3280]

There's no one quite like Bill Kenny.

[@JoshCarpio1011]

@@fuzzynumbers3280 Yes he had a very unique voice

[@wareforcoin5780]

I was just coming to say: his voice was truly beautiful. The Ink Spots are really a delight to listen to

[@antoniboleslawowicz8095]

Always dolce. I know of no other very high tenor who has a vibrato of the depth and steadiness of his.

[@BAR209]

Sounds like an opera. Bill Kenny had a voice like an angel. Unfortunately, he is almost completely forgotten these days, or rather his influence on music. Although many people know him and the Ink spots through Fallout, hardly anyone knows that Bill Kenny was the role model of Elvis and many others.

[@Jin-Rosavelt]

Literally stole the words from my mouth

[@fredk9999]

Well stated. We still see the other groups like The Platters and The Five Satins

[@kanamekiyru]

Us fallout fans will never forget

[@Frnk_3]

This man sat the stage for EVERYONE not just Elvis. Clyde McPhatter, Eddie Kendricks, Jackie Wilson, Gene Mumford, Sonny Til, Tony Williams, Jimmy Beaumont, and Earl “Speedo” Carroll. That’s even. Cutting the list short! A lot of popular R&B and Doo Wop and even early rock stars took their delivery from Mr. Kenny.

[@rb7860]

I know this song from Sanford and son.

[@smithbros1000]

My uncle Richard graduated high school in 1939. He sang snatches of The Ink Spots' songs the rest of his life. You could hear the reverence in his voice when he spoke of them.

[@JohnJohnsonTforTexas]

My father's favorite group

[@karenevans7366]

I met them as a child in the early 70s. Needless to say, I had no idea who they were but I remember my grandfather being really excited to see them.

[@kt16621]

Simply beautiful!!! Been hearing this song in movies lately. I pray their heirs received compensation. 💜💜💜

When I was a boy … my mom’s favorite recordings .,. I learned to love music listening to these beautiful voices. Listing and watching takes me back 75 years. Thank you.

[@RetroMusicMan369]

Bill Kenny singing lead along with Ink Spots are from Philly. And are thought of as one of the earliest vocal groups that lead to the great sound of the vocal groups from the late 40’s and through the 50’s. This song…just pure excellence ❤️ Thanks for posting 👍

[@georgeparowski1420]

So beautiful, it should appeal to anyone who has met the love of his life.

[@elizabethfreshour4828]

This was Tennessee Williams favorite song. He talked aboutbit all the time. I can certainly see why!!

[@jayonnaj18]

My late Uncle, my late Mother's eldest brother, absolutely loved this song by the Ink Spots! I was a little girl and fondly remember his playing this song over and over back in the day!

[@catlover34fl]

Amazing group! I love Bill Kenny's voice. My mom had most of their records during the war years in early 1940s. Everyone in my family had a favorite Ink Spot record. Mine was "We Three."

[@NirvanaFan24]

Mine is whispering glass. Such a lovely song

[@catlover34fl]

I agree. My mom had most of their records during the 1940s wartime. If I Didn't Care was her favorite. Mine was We Three.

[@cartergarrett5905]

"The Ink Spots" ❤. The Big Band era. In my words, they were the original Temptations. WWII was lurking around this time.

[@HelmetOfHonor]

Listening to The Ink Spots is like yoga to me. Their voices are so peaceful and harmonic.

Yes sir. The Ink Spots and Mills Bros. laid the foundation. The Dominoes, Orioles, and Ravens took it to new places. While groups like The Teenagers and Belmonts helped it all blur into rock n roll.
