Peggy Lee was one of the first big sex symbols of the
50’s as a result of her “come hither” singing style. She was born on this day in 1920.
The song, Fever, was written by the same guy that did
Don’t be Cruel and Great Balls of Fire.
She was born Norma Deloris Egstrom – not a name that
she kept for some reason!
She was a great jazz vocalist. She wrote the lyrics for lots of songs and
was also an accomplished actor. She
married and divorced 4 times – obviously an optimist!
You can probably pick up one of her cd’s cheaply – you
won’t regret it.
Peggy Lee......now she brings back memories. I haven't heard her music in so long. Thanks for the reminder!
