Our Take

Ah, Julie London, the quintessential chanteuse of the 1950s. Her smoky voice and sultry delivery have charmed audiences for decades. And now, we have the pleasure of revisiting two of her classic albums - "Calendar Girl" and "Around Midnight"- in all their vinyl glory.

"Calendar Girl" is a delightful romp through the months of the year, with London's dreamy vocals bringing each season to life. From the cheeky "June in January" to the seductive "September in the Rain," this album is a timeless treasure. London's effortless charm shines through on every track, making it the perfect soundtrack for lazy Sunday afternoons or romantic evenings by the fire.

But it's on "Around Midnight" that London truly shines. This album is pure midnight magic, with London's voice dripping with longing and desire. Each track is a seductive journey through the shadows of the night, from the haunting "Black Coffee" to the achingly beautiful "Round Midnight." London's voice is like a caress, smooth and irresistible, drawing you in and never letting go.

In conclusion, these albums are a must-have for any lover of jazz and classic vocals. Julie London's timeless appeal and undeniable talent shine through on every track, making "Calendar Girl" and "Around Midnight" essential additions to any music collection. So dim the lights, pour yourself a glass of something strong, and let Julie London work her magic. You won't regret it.
