5.0 out of 5 stars Superb combo of two of Miss London's finest albums, June 4, 2002

This review is from: Calender Girl / Your Number Please (Audio CD)

I was first turned on to Julie London's amazingly sultry voice through the Ultra Lounge collection, then later when I bought a three -CD box set on a whim that, although does a great job of highlighting her prolific career, skips many of her greatest performances, many of them captured on this must-have disc for any fan of Julie's or for good old-fashioned standards bathed in strings ("Your Number Please...") or vamped up or nearly whispered, depending on the song ("Calendar Girl.") The set has many highlights, and the first half, "Calendar Girl," has plenty of outstanding original songs, some of which surpass a few standards. Among my faves are "June in January," "February Brings the Rain," and "November Twilight" from "Calendar," and fantastic Andre Previn-conducted renditions of "It Could Happen to You," "They Can't Take Thay Away From Me," and "Love Is Here to Stay" on "Number," although really the whole thing is top-notch. Many of these songs have been performed hundreds of times by some of the most legendary of artists, but no one could make them as sexy and intimate as Julie does on this disc. It warms up any winter evening but plays just as nicely on a hot summer porch. Perfection!

5.0 out of 5 stars Your Number Please by Miss London is breathtaking..., August 3, 2000

This review is from: Calender Girl / Your Number Please (Audio CD)

Julie London sings with strings, and an orchestra arranged and conducted by Andre Previn, this moody album's highlights include the ultimate version of Makin Whoopee, and a breathtaking beautiful version of "When I Fall In Love." London sounds inspired and in a romantic mood, never have her velvety vocals sounded so delicious. An added extra is Calendar Girl another 50's LP is included on this two lp's on one CD, Calendar Girl is a concept album with a song for each month of the year, cute huh..., the price of the cd is worth it alone for Your Number Please and the cover art work for Calender Girl.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just pull your heartstrings right on out!, December 18, 1999

WARNING! Do Not Listen To This CD Alone! Julie's voice, recorded here, in analog, at the height of the "Hi-Fi" years gets all the way inside your emotions. "Love is here to stay" and "The More I see you" sound like they are whispered right next to your ear. Some of her best work.
