"vicki Benet"

French nightclub singer and Jazz standard recording artist, Vicki was born in Paris c.1930. Vicki sang on the cabaret circuit in Paris and London during the early 1950s. She married her manager Jack Elliott in 1964. She was also a Hollywood actress, including acting and singing 'Don't Go To Paris' in the Jerry Lewis 1961 movie "The Ladies Man'.
A much more solidly American album than some of Vicki Benet's other efforts of the time - which were usually more French-styled than this one! This time around, Vicki's got a great breathy style that's right up there with Julie London on Liberty - a late 50s sexiness that perfectly matches her ice blond look on the cover, and her slinky slinky dress! Arrangements are relatively gentle - strings, but never too lush - and Vicki hangs mostly in a ballad mode that's perfect for the breathiness of the recording.
