Music reviews of Bergen Sings Morgan / Party's Over
Music Review: Bergen Sings Morgan/The Party's Over; Reissued, at last!
Rating: 5 Stars
An avid fan of the movies while growing up, I first came to know Polly Bergen as an actress in many notable films of the 60s, among them "Cape Fear," "The Caretakers," "Kisses for My President," "Move Over, Darling" and a cameo in "Guide for the Married Man." After graduating high achool, I happened to come across an album she recorded in the 50s entitled "The Party's Over." Well, from the moment I heard Miss Bergen sings those note "I'm in love with a man....." I was introduced to Polly Bergen, the singer. I simply fell in love with her voice. I quickly learned that before acting, she had established a career as a singer, having recorded five albums for Columbia in the 50s and 60s, as well as singing on the original cast album of "First Impressions," a Broadway musical in which she appeared. As far as I know, she recorded one more full length LP after her contract ended with Columbia. It was an album of motion picture songs entitled "Act One, Sing Too" on the Philips label. It was the most difficult of all her LPs to acquire, but find it, I did. And well worth the search, too. Absolutely wonderful. The two albums compiled on this CD reissue were her first two for Columbia. Hopefully, the others will follow. They are the torch songs that we all love, and Miss Bergen sings them flawlessly. It's hard to pick favorites, but "The Party's Over" was the first time that I heard her sing. It's the best version of that gem that I've heard by a female vocalist. She sang "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" on the "Ed Sullivan Show" and I was fortunate to see a re-run of that episode recently on cable TV. In the early 60s, she also hosted the "Bell Telephone Hour" singing several Gershwin tunes. That show was repeated on a public televison special, and again, I was fortunate enough to see it. Since Polly Bergen only recorded six LPs before devoting herself completely to acting, her fans cherish each and every one of them. Hopefully, CD reissues (in beautifully remastered sound) of her remaining catalog are forthcoming. In the meantime, buy this one while it's still in print, and discover Polly Bergen, the singer.
