Black Coffee

I've been listening to Peggy Lee's first album, Black Coffee (1953/1956). I never was a fan of Peggy Lee, my earliest exposure to her was probably from Lady and the Tramp, and perhaps a variety show appearance on TV in my childhood. Love this album! What a great voice and delivery. An original singer/songwriter.

Black Coffee (title track)

of course any song with references to nicotine and caffeine always catches my attention.

I got lost online reading about Peggy Lee, following YouTube links. This is the video I stopped at. I love seeing the tracking lines, having a bit of nostalgia for the old VHS.

Peggy Lee, Sarah Vaughan, Aretha Franklin, Roberta Flack (1973)!
