I loved her! a straight ahead singer if ever I heard one, thanks Lance for this tribute
Liz
Sad to read about the death of Margaret Whiting. When I was a lad my brother had a very eclectic record collection and among it was one of her records, I forget what the A side was but the B side was The End Of A Love Affair which I nearly wore out. Maybe it was an omen but the lyric that sticks in my mind was " the tunes I request are not always the best but the ones where the trumpets blare".
Perhaps this is a song for Ruth or Zoe
I didn't know about this wonderful singer, and have just been completely spellbound by her version of this lovely song. I'll check out more. Thanks.
