About this book

Singers and the Song by Lees, Gene. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780195060874.

Led by Frank Sinatra, the generation that emerged during and after World War II raised the performance of the popular song to the level of art form. This book examines some of the most gifted of these singers--people like Sinatra, Dick Haymes, Peggy Lee, Jo Stafford, and Sarah Vaughn. Far from being the simple intuitive performers the public thought it knew, these great vocalists emerge as intelligent, skillful, and fully conscious artists dedicated to their work.
