This is an amazing vocal recording starring an Atlantic star of the late 50s Chris Connor. She's accompanied by three different bands, performing 14 wonderful standarts. The recording itself sounds absolutely brilliant, way better most of her later Atlantic ones.
Originally issued on Bethlehem, BCP-6004, on thick shellac. That's quite important, because the sound difference between shellac and vinyl is easily heard.
