Peggy Lee was a true artist in every sense of the word; each song provides a masterclass in performance and delivery, every note timed to perfection.
In her sixty-year career, Lee has been a celebrated singer, songwriter, bandleader, and actor. Her powerful command of a song in her unique text-based improvisational style has influenced a diverse range of artists, including Paul McCartney, Frank Sinatra, Madonna, and Adele.
Dubbed by close friend, Frank Sinatra as, “… just about the best friend a song ever had”, Lee’s perfectionism, poise, and subtle power have left a lasting legacy.
This wonderful collection of Lee’s early recordings showcases the talent and intelligence of this great artist, and includes such classics as ‘’Riders In The Sky (A Cowboy Legend),” “Just One Of Those Things”, “Mr Wonderful”, and of course, the smouldering, sensational “Fever”.
