Front to back, an incredible record. Her voice is perfect and every song is as well. The guitar interplay with her husband, Dave Barbour, is pure love. And every tune is top notch, even the offensive Manana. Prime Peggy!

 (EXCERPT FROM AN ANONYMOUS ONLINE REVIEW)

For the uninitiated: these are the first MODERN (POST-BIG BAND) recordings by Peggy Lee, and they predate even her earliest Decca sides, recorded in the mid-to-late 50’s. This is the stuff Jazz Vocals history is made of, and is right up there with the finest works by Billie Holiday, Betty Roche, Ella Fitzgerald, Anita O’Day, Carmen MacRae, Beverly Kenney and Helen Merrill.

This is not a greatest hits  but there are other compilations which cover them. There are hits here (including Golden Earrings and Riders in the sky, both #2 hits) but all the tracks here (according to the liner notes) were issued as singles, although the first six tracks were originally released as an 'album' of three 78 rpm singles, collectively titled Peggy Lee Rendezvous (giving it's name to this album).

This is a real treasure trove. Such is the consistent high quality that you couldn't tell from listening to the album which were hits and which were not, but who cares? You can hear Peggy's outstanding renditions of many classic songs and many obscure songs

·                          CONDITION:

·                          THE RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)         WE GRADE THE VINYL  AS  NEAR MINT. Some VERY LIGHT AND SUPERFICIAL abrasions – mostly sleeve scuffs -  are (barely) visible, but are probably inaudible,  and do not affect visual integrity or beauty of the vinyl. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

(b)         The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.

(c)         The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(d)         Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·                          THE COVER

THE COVER IS NICE --- ABOUT VERY GOOD++ (VG++).

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-       Cover has some light ring wear (nothing significant); On the scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the least, and  10 being the most severe), we assess the severity of ring wear as 1  (front side) and 3 (back side)

-       Back cover has a small, round, sticker residue (small yellowish discoloration from the removed price sticker)

-       Minor water staining noted on the back panel (less than 1 square inch in size)

-       Back cover has circular tarnish (grayish, dust-covered sections, which closely follow the contour of the record),  probably caused by friction or by rubbing against other covers during the storage. The tarnish is similar in appearance to a common ring wear, but, UNLIKE ring wear, these grayish areas may be possible to clean up with a minor effort and with a right cleansing solution.

-       Cover has a few minor wrinkles (air bubbles in the paper slick) on the front panel

NO OTHER VISIBLE FLAWS OR IMPERFECTIONS ON THE  COVER
