(Problems with magnets links are fixed by upgrading your torrent client!)
A carefully contrived "live" album performed ostensibly for a convention of Disc 

Jockeys in Miami, Florida but in reality edited into being in a recording studio

from bits of canned applause and even between-song commentaries by Ms Lee and

George Shearing.  


I've always cringed at the harsh/strident applause on this record but didn't learn

the truth about it until researching it for this upload.


Notwithstanding the truth, the "product" really seems to capture the great appeal

of Peggy Lee, singer/songwriter performing.

File list not available.

Comments

Lee and Shearing did in fact, perform at a DJ convention in Miami in 1959. Those performances, if they were recorded, are not the ones on this record.

Who needs CGI when we've got tape and razor blades?
After re-reading the text I am uncertain of exactly how this recording came into being. There's unnatural editing involved somewhere here but I still like this CD quite alot
This CD is the 1992 reissue...others appeared later
Peggy Lee never gave me "Fever". Ha ha...
Her best non-singing performance was in an episode of "The Girl from U.N.C.L.E." in 1966.
She and Stefanie Powers worked well together.

And you can keep the razor blades. I'll take the CGI!
As I recall the TV hit THE MAN FROM UNCLE aired on friday nights sometime between 7 and 10 PM in the 1960's It starred Robert Vaughn and David McCallum. Somehow I missed the GIRL FROM UNCLE. I'm thinking I was fortunate.
