Peggy Lee (May 26, 1920 – January 21, 2002) was an American jazz and popular music singer, songwriter, composer and actress in a career spanning nearly seven decades. From her beginnings as a vocalist on local radio, to singing with Benny Goodman's big band, she was forging her own sophisticated persona, Lee evolved into a multi-faceted artist and performer. She wrote music for films, acted, and created conceptual record albums—encompassing poetry, jazz, chamber pop, art songs, and other genres.

My favourite singer of all time. She's amazing.. Whenever I'm down, I can always hear her songs and I feel much better.

Amazing photos! Thanks!
Well, my favourites are 'I didn't know what time it was', 'I feel it', 'Black coffee', 'It's a good day', 'Is that all there is', 'Waiting for the train to come in', 'Mañana', 'Two for the road'... One of the things that I love about her is that she doesn't have a spectacular voice, but can sing anything and her voice is so smooth and sexy...
