Our Take

Julie London's reissue of "Calendar Girl" in this limited special gatefold edition is a delightfully charming trip down memory lane. The sultry tones of London's voice transport you to a bygone era where jazz ruled the airwaves and sophistication was key.

The album opens with the cheeky track "Wives and Lovers" which sets the tone for the rest of the record. London's vocals are as smooth as butter, effortlessly gliding over each note with a sense of grace and class that is sorely lacking in today's music scene.

Standout tracks include the jazzy "June in January" and the soulful "By the Light of the Silvery Moon". London's interpretation of these classics is nothing short of stunning, showcasing her vocal prowess and ability to breathe new life into old standards.

The limited special gatefold edition is a treat for the eyes as well as the ears, with beautiful artwork and a sleek design that will make it the jewel of any vinyl collection. This is an album that deserves to be played on repeat, savoured like a fine wine and enjoyed for years to come.

In conclusion, Julie London's "Calendar Girl" is a timeless classic that deserves a place in every music lover's collection. So grab a glass of champagne, dim the lights, and let London's velvet voice serenade you into the night. Cheers to that!
