Julie London - In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning/ Time For Lovers

I am in the mood for some sultry silky smooth sounds. So I have this secret not so secret love of Julie London and I always take chances on her records. I can imagine many a 1960's bachelor pad had a stack of Julie lp's to play for mood music. I often play her Golden Greats lp as nice relaxing background music. I read she was a heavey drinker and smoker and that it eventually affected her voice and singing. I seem to remember she had a deep voice on the show Emergency but I was a kid so my memory may be skewed.There is some weird factory pressing bump issue on both sides of this and you can slightly hear it. If not for that...this thing is spotless. And who can resist this picture sleeve. Liberty released many a Extended Play with her picture but very few 45 picture sleeves. I just learned their is a promo for her Christmas 45...guess I need to find that one
