Lazy Afternoon:  Peggy’s singing is warmly intimate and sophisticated. All her charms are sheathed in highly imaginative and brilliant orchestral settings, by such gifted arrangers as Henri René, Jack Marshall, and Pete King.

Sings Ballads For Broken hearts:  Pam’s creamy voice is as expressive and surprising as a jazz solo. The accompaniment Johnny Williams devised for Pam expresses her style exactly. Interwoven with strings is the excitement of a first-class rhythm section, and along with the freewheeling improvisation provided by Jack Sheldon’s trumpet, the beat and the lightness of jazz are always present. https://www.freshsoundrecords.com/peggy-king-pam-garner-albums/46592-lazy-afternoon-sings-ballads-for-broken-hearts-2-lp-on-1-cd.html

Personnel:  Peggy King, Pam Garner (vcl), Henri René, Pete King, Jack Marshall, Johnny Williams (arr, cond), Jack Sheldon (tp), Jimmy Rowles (p, celeste), Red Mitchell (b), Larry Bunker (d)

Along with Tony Bennett, Peggy King is among the very last certifiable stars of radio, television, motion pictures, theaters, nightclubs and recordings still working today. Shes packed a lot into a whirlwind career of the 1950s and early 1960s, working with everyone from Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis, Jr. to André Previn and a three-year association with comedian George Gobel; appearing in films like Zero Hour; singing at the 1955 Oscar Awards telecast; entertaining U.S. troops overseas with Bob Hope during the Korean War; and recording for Columbia Records, among others.

In 1961, she married After Six Formal Wear Chairman/President Samuel Rudofker, started a family in Philadelphia, and left the business. Aside from a brief re-entry onstage and with new recordings made during the mid-1980s, Peggy King did not perform in public professionally again until almost two years ago, when she met pianist Andy Kahn, drummer Bruce Klauber, and bassist Bruce Kaminsky, members in long-standing42 years, to be exactof Philadelphias popular jazz ensemble The All-Star Jazz Trio. ~Bruce Klauber
