Our Take

In the grand scheme of things, there are few artists who can match the seductive charm and timeless appeal of Julie London. The sultry songstress has been captivating listeners since the 1950s, and this collection of her work from 1955-62 is a true testament to her enduring talent.

From the moment you press play on this album, you're transported to a bygone era of cigarette smoke-filled lounges and romantic rendezvous. London's velvet vocals ooze sophistication and sensuality, effortlessly drawing you in with each mesmerising note.

Tracks like "Cry Me a River" and "Fly Me to the Moon" showcase London's ability to make even the simplest melody sound like pure magic. Her voice dances delicately over each lyric, painting vivid portraits of love and heartache in the listener's mind.

But it's not just London's vocals that shine on this collection – the lush arrangements and jazzy instrumentation provide the perfect backdrop for her honeyed tones. Each instrument is perfectly placed, creating a rich tapestry of sound that envelops you in warmth and nostalgia.

If you're looking for an album to soundtrack those late-night, candlelit moments, then look no further than The Julie London Collection 1955-62. It's a timeless treasure that will transport you to a world where love reigns supreme and music is the ultimate seduction. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
