	Julie London
		Julie London, the smoky-voiced torch singer who insisted she couldn't sing but who's voice sent shivers down spines and who's album covers alone turned men weak in the knees and women green with envy, has died.

	Songbirds: Julie London
		The most remarkable thing about Julie London is remarkable indeed: that she used her erotic persona not so much to interpret songs as to change the nature of them to become something other than when sung by anyone else.
		Born Julie Peck in 1926, London made her first movie in 1944 and had already been a sexpot in 13 films by the year of her first album (1956).
		With London, no misunderstanding is possible; her single-entendre sexuality rules out the possibility that she is actually preparing smoked Scottish fish for dinner.

	Julie London
		London's biggest hit was her first single, Cry Me A River, which was released in 1955, included on her first album, Julie Is Her Name, and sold more than 3m copies.
		However, London continued to sing in nightclubs, cut discs, and record title songs from her films, such as Saddle The Wind (1958) and Voice In The Mirror (1958), which she also composed.
		For five years, London was a star once more, reminding fans of the days when, to quote the writer Joseph Lanza, she "was a blend of Dionysian flesh and Detroit steel, streamlined car and cocktail shaker combined".

		Julie London died and most people I know thought she was dead already: ironically for a singer who had the best timing in pop, it seemed as if she missed her cue.
		I'd hazard a guess that there aren't many people now for whom Julie London records are a central part of who they are, rather than an elegant mixer for their more everyday tastes.
		But the songs Julie sang were standards, intended to be sung as part of a programme, to a small or medium sized group of people.

		EMI/Capitol controls Julie London [+]'s entire back catalog, but has only reissued a couple of the vocalist's original albums in the U.S. Thankfully, the label has finally provided listeners with a stellar CD reissue of About the Blues [+] on its Blue Note jazz subsidiary.
		London wasn't really a jazz singer, but she possessed a definite jazz feeling and many of her finest albums (such as Julie Is Her Name and Julie...At Home [+]) feature small-group jazz backings.
		Since downbeat torch songs were London's specialty, the album features an excellent selection of nocturnal but classy blues songs that play to her subtle strengths instead of against them.

		Thankfully, Julie London had enough jazz credentials and focused vocal talent that such blatant cheesecake shots remain of secondary importance to the music contained on the album.

		Few starlets were as gorgeous as 18-year-old Julie London when she entered the film business in 1944 with "Nabonga." She befriended a gorilla after living through a plane crash in that one.
		Although she made dozens of movies over the next 3 years and was impressive in all of them, Julie London always looked as if she could take on her career or leave it alone & no harm done either way.
		In one of her best roles, she played the wife of alcoholic Richard Egan in "Voice in the Mirror." In addition to singing the haunting vocal track, London was enormously effective as a woman who would rather see her much-loved husband dead than ever watch him take another drink.

	Julie London : Whatever Julie Wants - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Julie London was equally famous for her cool vocal style and her rather cold beauty.
		She normally specialized in torch songs, singing bleak songs of lost love, but on Whatever Julie Wants, London plays the part of a vampish sexpot who treats love as a commodity to trade with wealthy men.
		Sure, it's a sexist album that's more famous for its cheesecake sleeve photo of London naked under fur, diamonds, money, and a strategically placed champagne bottle, but it is a fun album and one that can be enjoyed for its individual songs or its narrative thrust.

		The tracks are very well chosen, and they caught the best aspects of her career here, starting with the sparsely arranged material of her first few albums, going through the bigger-band stuff, and stopping a little short of the pure pop of her last few recordings.
		Julie London was a truly original performer who brought a sleek and sexy and very understated touch to what was nearly always A-plus material.
		Julie London deserves to have her whole catalogue reissued, and the next two we need are "Lonely Girl" and "Make Love To Me".
