"You Belong To Me" has quite a recording history. The song was composed during WW2 by Chilton Price but was reworked and promoted by Pee Wee King and Redd Stewart afterwards so Chilton ceded some of the writing credit to them. The first popular recording of it was by Sue Thompson in the late 1940's followed by a cover from Patti Page. The first hit version of "You Belong To Me" was recorded by Jo Stafford in August of 1952, and it went all the way to #1 on the pop charts in both the US and UK. Patsy Cline recorded a version ten years later in 1962 as well as The Duprees, and their version went to #7 during August of that year.

  • There were plenty of pics out there but most got lost in time and of course with Joey's passing in 1984 even more were lost. I have couple I can share with you if you provide me your email I will be happy to send what I have. I know how difficult it is for next to nothing is on the net.

  • @EHDROCK Send the pix to nocaro@aol.com and let me take a look at these. However, if they are just pix of him not with the group, I wouldn't be interested. Thanks.

  • It is amazing that in this video, the one person aside of John Salvado, responsible for their success, lead singer Joey Canzano, is NOT in this video yet it is his voice singing?

  • @EHDROCK Unfortunately, I had a very difficult time finding pix of the original Duprees. If you can locate any with Joey Canzano, let me know and I'll arrange for you to send them to me repost the video. Thanks for the note.

  • @Nocaro At the end of the video the greates hits photo with the orginal members on the fence outside they are all there. Joey Vann in center. John Salvado and Joe Santolo along with Mike Arnone who started everthing. Mike Kelly came along later and did a good job. But Joey Vann was the voice of the real Duprees!  Mike

  • @watchthatbaby Thanks for the run-down!
