I used to sing this song for the public and the customers loved it. Very few of them knew that the song was written by a man for his son who was serving in WW2. Makes it even more poignant, to me.
Thanks so much for putting it up and bringing back many memories of the 80's.
My dad brought the 45 of "I'll Take Care Of Your Cares" home in 1967 or 1968 and we played it all the time. I still have it. Whenever I hear Frankie Laine I think of Dad. I would love to find a background track for this song so that I could record it myself.
These songs are very personal to me, you see when I was a child my Mother passed away very suddenly, and this song and making memories were the only song my Father would play that first year after her death. They are both very beautiful songs done very beautifully
@TheElliedee - I had a very similar experience, with my mom passing very suddenly and my dad also played this recording all the time. He was so broken hearted, I don't think he ever fully recovered from her death. Thissong is very personal to me because of that experience.
I wouldn't be quite as extravagant in my praise as MTM, but this is a great post. And it is hard to imagine someone else singing these 2 songs quite as well. These are from Frankie's years at ABC records and he had some great recordings there. Frankie probably sang better at an advanced age than anyone I can remember. When he was 85, he sang better than most 50 year olds.
No one in this world, could sing like Frankie Laine ...........I am a long time fan of this great man. These two songs just brings tears to my eyes, theyre done so beautifully.
Some people think Frankie was a western singer,but anyone who has followed him through the years knows this is not so. He had such a great voice! Thanks for posting.
I would just like to thank you for this as I was looking for this song as it was my mums favourite who passed away and I am trying to organise her funeral and wanted this song and found it difficult to find but thanks to you I did, and I appreciate this and I am sure she would too, thank you

@cf1934 Actually, Frankie put more records on the R&B charts than the Country charts.

These records did get FL back on the radio and charts--even if it was the "Easy Listening" segment--for the first time in years.
