Singin' Sam was the stage name of Harry Frankel who started out in vaudeville and singing with silent films. Harry started in radio broadcasting in 1929 with radio station WLW in Cincinnati, Ohio, and he adopted the name "Singin' Sam the lawnmower man." In 1931, he was offered a job with WABC in New York for a nightly 15 minute program, sponsored by the Barbasol Shaving Cream Company and he soon became known as "Singin' Sam the Barbasol Man." 1n 1937, Harry did a series of broadcasts for the Coca Cola Company that were recorded on 16 inch discs which were syndicated and distributed all over the country. In 1945, Harry formed Transcription Sales Company and produced 260 quarter-hour broadcasts titled "Reminiscin' with Singin' Sam". Joining him for those broadcasts were accordionist Charlie Magnante and his sextet; others were Hilda, Kathleen and Mary--The Mullen Sisters. Harry died in 1948 at the age of 60.
