Die Ink Spots spielten eine wichtige Rolle als Pioniere des Genres der schwarzen Gesangsgruppen und ebneten den Weg für die Doo-Wop-Explosion der 50er Jahre. Der zitternde hohe Tenor von Bill Kenny war ein Vorbote für Hunderte von Straßenmusikern, die noch kommen sollten, und die sanften Harmonien von Charlie Fuqua, Deek Watson und dem Bassisten Hoppy Jones (der 1944 starb) unterstützten ihn perfekt. Kennys tadellose Diktion und Jones' tiefer Tonfall waren beide auf dem ersten Hit der Ink Spots bei Decca im Jahr 1939, dem sentimentalen "If I Didn't Care", zu hören. Von da an bis 1951 war die Gruppe nur noch selten in den Pop-Charts vertreten und führte die Listen mit "We Three (My Echo, My Shadow, and Me)", "I'm Making Believe", "Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall", "The Gypsy" und "To Each His Own" (alle hier enthalten) an.
