Full review

This was the first album I'd bought by Peggy Lee, after hearing a few of her songs from the internet, and I was quite impressed.
It may just be my taste, but in my opinion quite a lot of the songs are dull, and I almost always skip the instrumentals.

Peggy Lee is brilliant, as usual, and George Shearing is enough to make you want to take up Piano.

The album's best songs have to be -
2: I Lost My Sugar In Salt Lake City
7: Blue Prelude
8. You Came A Long Way From St Louis
9: Always True To You In My Fashion
11: Get Out Of Town (has an AMAZING piano solo)
13: Nobody's Heart

Some of the songs take a while to get into, but you probably won't regret buying this album.
