Synopsis

Amazon.com
In her early days as a big-band vocalist (wonderfully represented in this sampler), Peggy Lee's sound that was generally brighter and bouncier than the sultry sizzle she'd later bring to hits like "Fever" and "Black Coffee." Those two aren't on this album, but you can hear 'em coming in songs like "Why Don't You Do Right (Get Me Some Money Too)," "Don't Smoke in Bed," and "Baby, Don't Be Mad at Me." Traces of Bessie Smith and Billie Holiday come through in some songs, while several Latin numbers have a playful Carmen Miranda flavor. Miss Lee herself co-wrote "Mañana (Is Good Enough For Me)," a number one hit in 1948. --Jim Emerson
