Grey hound

Jeff Chandler Sings TO YOU   Liberty Records (1957)   Chandler was an academy award-nominated supporting actor (playing an American Indian in Broken Arrow) who took a shot at singing.   He died in 1961 at just 42 years old (tragically from malpractice in a botched back surgery).     Oh, and Esther Williams said he was a cross-dresser.
