Georgia Brown.


 Looking at my stats I see that I have quite a lot of people from "Australia" and "Russia" having a look at this blog..sooooo just some info about "Georgia Brown" She was the original "Nancy"in "Lional Barts" "Oliver"when it was first put on in London..she was a stage actress and singer she did do some films but mainly stage work...If you "Google" her you will see that she was quite busy..unfortunately she is no longer with us...But back to the L/P it consists of 12 good standard song tracks that she stamps her style on them familar songs but done so different that they seem "New"....and boy does she belt them out !!

P.S. If I were a Vocal Teacher or "Coach" as they are called these days I would definitely use this L/P as a "Bench March" and try to get "Georgia" to do a "Masterclass" to all the up and coming Female Singers....But Alas !! I wouldn't know where to start as a "Coach" and unfortunately "Georgia" is no longer with us.....BUT this is still one of the best vocal L/P's of the 60's (1963) to be precise !!!

  3. Hi Luigi - greetings from Newcastle (upon Tyne) . I love your blog and you're absolutely on fire at the moment. Excellent stuff, thanks. This wonderful album reminded me of a fantastic documentary she did about immigration in the East End - Jonny Trunk posted it as one his 50p Friday mail-outs - it's fantastic (as is she) and we could really do with an updated version of it now...

  6. Thank you for this jewel. I am thrilled. What a chance find and what a voice. Why is she not as well known as Peggy Lee or Barbra. But life is not fair.
