Julie London Documentary - The Lady's Not a Vamp

"Julie London: The Lady's Not a Vamp". Produced by the BBC, 2006. --Narrated by Mariella Frostrup --Produced & Directed by Louis Heaton Thanks to albums like Natalie Cole's 1990 "Unforgettable", the genre of jazz/classic pop/standards was revived in the 80's & 90's. Due to the success of recordings like Natalie Cole's 1990 "Unforgettable" album, the genre of jazz/standards/classic pop was revived in the 80's & 90's. Thanks to this, in the late 1990's Capitol Records released a phenomenal series of discs called "Ultra-Lounge" that featured a myriad of tracks picked from the label's enormous catalogue of recordings from the 50's/60's of music that people today refer to as "lounge music". The series also featured CD's that were devoted to individual singers such as Wayne Newton, Louis Prima, Sam Butera, & even Mrs. Miller (?). Julie London also got her own disc, & thanks to this her recordings of the 50's & 60's were re-discovered & soon re-issued. She became even more popular when she was re-discovered! I have been a fan of La London ever since I heard her rendition of "Fly Me to the Moon" on the radio when I was a kid. I was born in 1981, & in my opinion the music of the great jazz/standards singers & arrangers of the mid 20th century showed popular music at its most sublime.
