Music reviews of The End Of The World/Nice Girls Don't Stay For Breakfast
Music Review: Terrific Twofer
Rating: 5 Stars
"Years from now, if you should look back at the 'good old days' and think of 'the good old songs,' you're likely to think of most of the songs in this album, because they are more than just hits of the day. They're among the small percentage of songs which eventually become standards. One of the most important factors in making a pop hit into standard is the treatment the song gets while it is new. It takes a recording artist such as Julie London - an artist who interprets that special 'something' to a melody and lyric to make a song memorable. And certainly no one does quite as much for a ballad as does Julie, with her soft, sultry voice and her inimitable way of caressing a lyric line. So have a listen while Julie sings you some of tomorrow's great standards." ~ Liner Notes, 1963 ~
True enough, the writer of Liner Notes on the original LP The End of the World released in 1963 was exactly right on his observations about Julie London and the album's material, which I call "hit songs of yesterdays, great standards of today."
Julie London possessed one of the loveliest voices ever to grace the recording industry. From 1955 through 1969 she recorded numerous top-notch albums and she was one of the highly-regarded female singers of her time. She was one of the most remarkable singers whose vocal artistry I learned to appreciate at an early age being one of my late parents' favorite singers. They collected quite a number of her LP records which include two LPs combined in this wonderful CD, "The End of The World" and "Nice Girls Don't Stay For Breakfast." I remember my late mother once told me that Julie London was one of her favorites along with Doris Day, Jane Morgan and Kitty Kallen and a few others I can't recall now who possessed a combination of real beauty and talent. To me, listening to this CD evokes nostalgic sentiments and brings to mind fond memories of yesterdays with the music that my beloved late parents once enjoyed listening to. And not to mention that I was always hanging around with them on most of their listening sessions when I was growing up. How I loved browsing their collection of vinyl records.
The first twelve tracks were arranged and conducted by one of Frank Sinatra's best arrangers, Ernie Freeman and were taken from 1963 album "The End of The World" while the second half was arranged and conducted by Don Bagley from 1967 album "Nice Girls Don't Stay For Breakfast."
Julie London's vocal splendor can be best heard in "You Made Me Love You," "I Surrender Dear," "There Will Never Be Another You" and "I Remember You" - these are the very songs that the listeners can truly appreciate her gorgeous vocal art that is uniquely her own. She certainly made a statement with her softly sweet and sultry voice that speaks of timeless elegance, confidence and finesse.
This is a terrific twofer that I wholeheartedly recommend. And for more of Julie London's terrific twofers, please check these out: Julie Is Her Name, Vols. 1-2, Julie...At Home/Around Midnight, Julie/Love on the Rocks, Lonely Girl/Make Love to Me and Love Letters/Feeling Good. Ditto with Sophisticated Lady.
