Frank Fontaine entertained millions of viewers in featured skits appearing on "The Jackie Gleason Show" playing a bar room patron named Crazy Guggenheim while Jackie Gleason played the bartender who always greeted his previous customer (the TV viewer) as "Joe". Frank Fontaine sang beautifully - a rich baritone voice. I'm glad Mr. Gleason discovered Frank Fontaine. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Frank+Fontaine">Read more on Last.fm</a>
