Marilyn Maye

Meet Marvelous Marilyn Maye

(Stereo LSP-3397)
Marilyn's first RCA album was recorded in New York's Webster Hall in 1965. It was produced by Joe Rene and featured arrangements by both Don Costa and Manny Albam. Not surprisingly Steve Allen authored the album notes, which ended with Allen penning "All in all, this is probably the best damned vocal album of 1965--so there."

According to "Wikipedia" Marilyn is still singing and performing at the grand age of 88 !!

    I'm reading a couple of books that keep me visiting your site. The author
    Will Friedwald is opinionated but also very knowledgeable.
