Richard the Lion-Hearted - Dick Haymes that is! is an album from Dick Haymes. Released in 1960, arranged & conducted by Ralph Burns.^[1] A review by Christopher Loudon in Jazz Times summed up the album by saying "Though Haymes would return to the recording studio in the 1970s and manage a minor resurgence, it seems a fitting adieu to an underappreciated master who spend too much time in an even bigger giant’s (Sinatra's) shadow."^[2]
