In the wake of “Fever”, Capitol released this contrasting non-album curio: a short, happy-clappy gospel-style number with a chirpy, singalong chorus. Stylistically, it seemed the very antithesis of her earlier smash. Even so, “Light Of Love” was a hit single and reached No.63 in the US pop charts.
This, the Cy Coleman/Carolyn Leigh-penned title song from Lee’s second Capitol album of 1965, originally came from the soundtrack to the Cary Grant comedy-drama movie Father Goose, released a year earlier. Military-style drum rolls propel this jaunty tune, which breaks into syncopated jazzy swing rhythms in the last verse. It marched straight into ...
With its stripped-back bass-and-drums arrangement, the sinuous “Sweetheart” was very similar in its style, mood, and tempo to Lee’s chart smash “Fever,” released earlier the same year. R&B singer-songwriter Winfield Scott, who penned Elvis Presley’s “Return To Sender,” wrote the song.
Lee showed that she could act as well as sing via her role in the movie Pete Kelly’s Blues, which brought her an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress. Taken from the soundtrack, this smoothly swinging Billie Holiday-esque song was a re-recording of a tune that Lee cut in the decade prior.
Peggy Lee showed great ingenuity by writing lyrics for Duke Ellington’s title theme from the soundtrack to Otto Preminger’s 1959 movie Anatomy Of A Murder. A driving big band number rendered in 6/8 time, the tune goes through several ascending key changes – which Lee navigates with aplomb – and then gradually subsides, coming to a sudden halt.
“My Man” was Lee’s blues-infused version of a 20s French cabaret song (“Mon Homme”), which featured on her Capitol album I Like Men!Her voice, sassy and seductive, is underpinned by a minimalist arrangement characterized by prominent drums, tinkling piano licks, and slivers of muted trumpet. The tune reached No.81 in the US pop charts.
After the phenomenal success of “Mañana (Is Soon Enough For Me),” Lee, then 28, took her musical inspiration from Brazil for this colorful hip-shaking romp which features a warbling flute and chirpy woodwind darting behind her assured, smooth vocals. Lee’s then-husband, guitarist Dave Barbour, also shows his prowess with a nimble-fingered solo. Tho...
As “Fever” and “I’m A Woman” illustrated, Lee had a penchant for taking R&B songs and remaking them in her own image. She did it again with this Ray Charles hit, which was initially deemed controversial for its marriage of gospel and blues music. Lee, however, gave it mainstream acceptability with a swinging and, at times, elegant big band arrangem...
A song associated with Count Basie, in the era when stentorian-voiced singer Joe Williams fronted his group, Lee transformed this brash, brassy Mayme Watts and Sid Wyche tune into a subtly-swinging jazz-blues groove and hit the US charts, where the record peaked at No.68. The song appeared on Lee’s Jack Marshall-arranged Capitol albumThings Are Swi...
Though Lee scored several uptempo chart hits during her first stint at Capitol Records in the late 40s, she wasn’t averse to giving her fans something different from time to time. Recorded in tandem with Dave Barbour and his orchestra, the Willard Robison-penned “Don’t Smoke In Bed” is a classic break-up ballad that finds Lee convincingly portrayin...
