From the back cover: Everything the Don Cornell does packs a punch – which is no more than natural, for Don won his school's middle-weight boxing title when he attended Roosevelt High School. Born in New York City, Don was a typical metropolitan boy, but he wavered between pugilism and music. It was not until he graduated that he know what he wanted – which was to be singer. Don was still in his teens when he auditioned for an orchestra at the Edison Hotel. With the typical Cornell gift for success, he won the trial.

After that Don was featured with a number of orchestras. He attained prominence as a member of the Sammy Kaye organization; interrupted his career to enlist in the Army Air Corps; rejoined Kaye and, in 1952, signed a Coral Recording contract. His Coral records were immediately successful and created a demand for more... and more.
