(Blaine was also the vocalist for another well-liked Donahue song that was recorded on the same day that I'll Never Tire of You was recorded, Half a Heart is Worse Than None.) The song on the other side of the I'll Never Tire of You recording is titled "Flo-Flo". It was also performed by the Sam Donahue Orchestra and was also recorded on the same day that I’ll Never Tire of You was recorded. Flo-Flo was composed by Academy, Emmy and Tony Award winner Ralph Burns. According to an article in the LA Times, he admitted that he learned the most about jazz by transcribing the works of Count Basie, Benny Goodman and Duke Ellington. "I'll Never Tire of You" is featured in The Sam Donahue Collection 1940-48. Acrobat Records is the label name. Marketing and distribution for the album was handled by Arista Records. An article in Jazz Journal featured that reissue album; which has a majority of Donahue’s songs from the 1940s. Online music database AllMusic also highlighted that album on their website. Trapeze Music & Entertainment Limited, an independent label and distributor with a loyal customer base in the UK, US and throughout mainland Europe, highlighted a quote in their reviews (borrowed from Jazzviews March 2021) by Derek Ansell, a regular contributor to Jazz Journal, stating, “Although these pieces vary tremendously from track to track the music is all well played and shines a spotlight on a musician who really deserved to be much better known than he was.” In an article in The Syncopated Times, Scott Yanow, who has written for Down Beat, Jazz Times, AllMusic, Cadence, Coda and the Los Angeles Times, stated, regarding the collection of Donahue’s songs, that “it is a pity that it could not have been a three-CD set that included everything” that he recorded during 1940-48. Yanow also voiced his opinion in that article regarding the musical skills of Donahue’s bands, stating that “the musicianship is consistently excellent.” The Sam Donahue Collection 1940-48 is marketed via major retail outlets, including Amazon, Target and Barnes & Noble. Several lesser-known retail outlets, like MVD Entertainment Group and Collectors Choice Music, also market it. (en)
