Ray Eberle.

He was the brother of Bob Eberly who sang with Jimmy Dorsey for several years. Ray changed the spelling of his last name to avoid confusion. Unlike Bob, Ray wasn't a well-trained singer and Miller was often criticized for hiring him. They eventually parted ways in mid-1942, shortly before the band broke up.

After the war Ray performed many of his earlier hits, sometimes as a single act but more often with his own band or with a reunion group led by fellow Miller alumnus Tex Beneke.

Ray was an admitted alcoholic, an illness that led to his relatively early death in 1979. His daughter Jan and nephew Bob Jr. continue the Eberle vocal tradition. Jan has in fact performed with an English band led by Glenn's nephew John Miller, so there are new Miller-Eberle recordings nearly 70 years later!
