Gloria Lynne:

The Best Of:(1969)

Considered a Jazz vocalist, to me Lynn bridges the divide between Jazz and orchestrated R&B better than other who tried. This is romantic music. This is sophisticated music. This is mood music. And again, this is a record I probably wouldn't own if it weren't for cheap thrift store digging. 

Peggy Lee:

Basin Street East Proudly Presents Miss Peggy Lee:(1961)

A delightful thrift store find that I picked up about fifteen years ago. Sure, Peggy Lee was middle of the road pop jazz/torch singing, but she did it well in an upper-middle class late 50's early 60's safe white way.
