Bass voice on Dinah Shore's recording of Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo

[rob kilbride]

Sounds similar to Thurl Ravenscroft but I would have to guess it's not him. Sounds a little different. Does anyone know who the singer is? Seems like I've heard him before. It certainly could be Thurl although using a different inflection than he usually did.

But it doesn't seem that Thurl recorded with Dinah Shore!

The Mellomen did record with Dinah Shore as did The Sportsmen. My best guess is that it's not Thurl. Whenever I hear a bass solo on a record from that time period, I always listen to see if it's Thurl and I remember thinking it wasn't him.

I don't think its him, but what gets me is there is something familiar about the voice. I love this track, it is the kookiest hut version of the song.

I just listened to the song and the men are The King's Men (Bud Linn, Jon Dodson, Rad Robinson, and Ken Darby). Who the women are, I have no clue. The bass is Ken Darby. I guess all those years of listening to "Fibber McGee and Molly" paid off
