Lena Horne

  So after having a wonderful visit from my best buds and touring the local landscape for junk shops aka cheap records, I had to sink my depressed head into "the sound of silence."  But what better way to cheer yourself up with, what the back of the album says, "arguably the greatest entertainer" of all-time!!!!  Forget the Beatles, the Stones, I now have the greatest!  With a review like that I was damn ready to sell my whole collection and play Lena Horne back to back for the rest of my life! 

  All sarcasm aside, my girlfriend picked this one, for some odd reason I kept thinking Mary Poppins style Disney music ... but the fact that she picked it and is showing interest in records, I had to buy it by default.  Perfect pick when you have grandma over for dinner and want to skip out on listening to her Kenny G CDs all night long!!!
