Vinyl - Mono
Born in Santa Rosa, California, as Gayle Peck, she was the daughter of Jack and Josephine Peck, who had a vaudeville song-and-dance team. When she was 14, they moved to Los Angeles. Shortly after that, she began appearing in movies. She graduated from the Hollywood Professional High School in 1945.
She was married to Jack Webb of Dragnet fame. Her widely-regarded beauty and poise (she was a pinup girl prized by GIs during World War II) contrasted strongly with his pedestrian appearance and stiff-as-a-board acting technique (much parodied by impersonators). This unlikely pairing arose from his and her love for jazz music; their marriage lasted from July 1947 to November 1953.[1] They had two daughters, one who was killed in a traffic accident in the 1990s and one who survived her. In 1954, having become somewhat reclusive after her divorce from Jack Webb, she met jazz composer and musician Bobby Troup at a club on La Brea Blvd.[2] They married on December 31, 1959; only his death in February 1999 ended their marriage. Together, they had one daughter and a pair of twin sons.
She suffered a stroke in 1995, and was in poor health until her death in Encino, California, at the age of 74, survived by four of her five children.

Most of this records are out of copyright in Europe, as the Julie London's one, You can find it on cheap cd for €3, as many Frank Sinatra Capitol albums. Copyright in Europe only lasts 50 years since the record was first published.

Such a niice looking gal.
I liked the album. Too bad we don't have more singers like her.
I am in the minority. Seems everyone likes jibberish sounding,what they call, music. Thanks a lot for this and the other julie album.
