Calling Lawrence Tibbett fans! Can someone please cite a source/sources for this lovely descriptive paragraph:-

"Tibbett left a legacy of superlative recordings made in the 1920s and '30s. They are available on CD. His voice was dark, rich and wide-ranging with a characteristic, virile tone. He used his vocal resources with almost profligate abandon during the years of his prime, but seldom at the expense of sensitive musicianship."

Dates needed for these two facts:
  • Lawrence Tibbett was pictured on a set of United States postage stamps in the "Legends of American Music series", celebrating opera singers.
  • Tibbett was made a posthumous member of the charter class of honorees in the “Hollywood Walk of Fame” as consequence of these motion picture performances.
