A true son of Wales, Harry Secombe exemplifies the love of his people for music and singing. Apart from being Britain's leading comedian - in itself a rare honour - due to his hard work and love of singing, he is also one of its most popular singers in his particular field.  At first, best known for his fine performances of most of the great operatic arias, he has since extended his repertoire by also recording many of the better light songs of this century, songs from his homeland, Neapolitan love songs, etc. Those were the words on the original album release of Sacred Songs, further pointing out that the album followed the success of an EP of sacred songs.
