His 1950 hit "Anytime" made him one of the most popular singers of the early 1950s.
For his early sound, try "Anytime." The ballad "A Stranger in My Arms" from that 1962 album shows how he handled quieter material.
Fisher's voice had a clean, easy quality that worked across pop, jazz, and Broadway tunes. Songs like "Dungaree Doll" and "Anema E Core" fit that smooth style perfectly. He influenced other performers too, Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin both covered his material later on.
He started performing with big bands as a teenager in Philadelphia. The 1959 divorce from Debbie Reynolds and marriage to Elizabeth Taylor drew public attention that affected his career, but he kept recording, putting out albums like 1962's "Eddie Fisher Sings for You."
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
