Wonga Phillip "Phil" Harris (June 24, 1904 – August 11, 1995)

was successful as an orchestra leader, but is remembered today for his
recordings as a vocalist, and his voice work in animation, one being Baloo

situation comedy, first with Jack Benny, and then in a series in which he co-
starred with his wife, singer-actress Alice Faye, for eight years.
