Description
“Most audience members doubtless empathised with Leonard Feather’s remark ‘If you don’t feel a thrill when Peggy Lee sings, you’re dead, Jack’ Perhaps her most popular LP of all was The Man I Love in July 1957 after her move back to Capitol: conducted by Frank Sinatra it was guaranteed to jump off the shelves (indeed she has been described as the female equivalent of Sinatra; and her effortlessly unpretentious style resembles his and is much imitated by contemporary female stars). This album included such gems as The Folks Who Live On The Hill, Happiness Is A Thing Called Joe, That’s All, Please Be Kind.” (J.Murray)
