Something Cool

[jazzy_dave]

I dug out two other albums by June Christy in my collection. I just go all melt face over her voice. Known for her work in the cool jazz genre and for her silky smooth vocals she is best known for her album Something Cool. So for your delectation here is that title track.

June Christy - Something Cool

I just love this tune.

Christy semi-retired from the music business in 1969, in part due to her battle with alcoholism. She was an inveterate drinker by all accounts.

I must admit, I seem to be going through a period of discovery with all these classic fifties jazz standards.

Last night I watched a classic film starring the wonderful Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast At Tiffany. I have also read the book the film is based on by Truman Capote. From that film is the wonderful Moon River.

I am an old romantic at heart.
