Peggy Lee's coolly seductive style, like that of Julie London, displays an authentic white jazz idiom that is every bit as powerful as Ella's or Billie's, precisely through its understatement. Rather than bourbon, Lee drowns her lovelorn sorrows in black coffee and nicotine, the pre-Valium "mother's little helpers", as it were; but the forlorn longing is the same. A spirited lass, she doesn't stay permanently in the doldrums; there's a fine version of 'I Didn't Know What Time It Was', and on the 1956 extended reissue, a quirky, varie-speed version of 'It Ain't Necessarily So'. Not much sugar in the coffee, though - but that's the way I like it.
