12 view cover	24 Classic Songs (1998) more music like this by Ethel Merman In the 1930s and '40s, while starring in one Broadway musical after another, Ethel Merman made occasional forays into the recording studio, usually to cut songs from her shows.

18	Sophisticated Lady (1962) more music like this by Julie London "Sophisticated" is the right word to describe Julie London's cool vocal approach; it can be shoved into the background, but if you listen closely there's a lot of turmoil going on under its seemingly calm surface. Similar to Chet Baker's unruffled way with a lyric, London's self-described "thimble full of a voice" ends up describing how pain hasn ... see all copies from $17.65!
