Singles Collection 1947-59

• Track Listing

Evolving out of the Brown Dots and the Sentimentalists in the mid-’40s, the Four Tunes initially sang in the traditional style of the Ink Spots and Mills Brothers. But these tracks (late ’40s to late ’50s) found them leaning into R&B and becoming one of the most revered harmony groups of the doo-wop age. You’ll hear 75 A- and B-sides for Manor, Columbia, RCA, Jubilee and Crosby: their hits "Marie," "I Understand Just How You Feel," "Sugar Lump," "Time Out for Tears," "I Want to Cry" (last two with Savannah Churchill), their memorable takes on "Don’t Get Around Much Anymore," "I Don’t Want to Set the World on Fire," "My Buddy," "Cool Water," "I Married an Angel," "Am I Blue," "Careless Love," "My Wild Irish Rose" and more!
