Things ARE Swingin'
Jack Jones | Woodland Hills, CA United States | 10/20/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is another "Swingin...'" cd from the late 50's Capitol catalog, like Sinatra's "Songs for Swingin' Lovers" or Deano's "This Time I'm Swingin'". It has the classic, warm '50's era Capitol stereo sound too (with the exception of "You Don't Know" and "Fever" in mono due to technical problems at the time of the recording).



Peggy Lee's voice is in great form and the song performances are wonderful, especially "It's a Wonderful World", "It's Been a Long, Long Time", "Life is for Livin'" and, of course, "Fever". It also includes two numbers she penned, the title track "Things Are Swingin'" and "It's a Good, Good Night", both of which stand up well, and in some cases better, with the other tunes. A great singer and a talented songwriter!



This is one of those cds that gets many plays in my player: no dust collecting here. It's a classic. Please Capitol, more original releases by Peggy Lee!"
