    Still know the words to several of her hits (and remember her role in film "Elmer Gantry" as well).

    I loved her singing as a child, as did my parents. What a presence and sensitivity she had. She was pretty easy on the eyes, too.

    She was ubiquitous in the 50s. Kay Starr was better.

    Neither one was in the same league as Sass or Ella. Buf shit kink is shit kick.
