Calendar Girl
LP (Item 358689) Liberty, 1956 — Condition: Used
One of Julie London's wildest albums – and one of her sexiest too! The record has Julie running through the calender – singing a song a month, dedicated to January, February, March, and so on – a really great concept for a record like this, in ways that set the album apart from some of London's other classics of the time! The record's certainly one of her campier efforts – but in a great way – and it's further agumented by a great cover that has pinup images of Julie in a setting specific to each month – a cheesecake spectacular that's almost worth the price of admission alone. Titles include "June In January", "February Brings The Rain", "Melancholy March", "Memphis In June", and "Time For August". (Maroon label mono pressing. Cover has some edge wear, with splitting on the bottom seam.) © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
