If there are any out there who have not heard Lee Wiley or even heard of her it is time for you to be nice to yourself and lend an ear to this lovely girl from Oklahoma.
From her first recording in mid-1931 until late 1939 Lee Wiley recorded less than twenty titles, some of which were never issued originally (for which see "The Complete Young Lee Wiley"). This compilation finishes with three songs from that period, two from November 1934 with Victor Young, and one from that March with Johnny Green, then jumps to the 1940 Commodore recording of "Sugar". It kicks off, however, with the November 1939 session of four Gershwin songs for the Liberty Music Shop label, on which the accompaniment included Max Kaminsky, Bud Freeman, and George Wettling. Next up is the April 1940 Cole Porter session, which includes Bunny Berigan and Johnny Mince, then the February 1940 Rodgers & Hart session. The remaining four tracks of Harold Arlen compositions come from a post-1942 session with Eddie Condon & his Orchestra.
Little of which is to be gleaned from either the tracklist, or compiler Stan Britt's liner note. But as a collector of leaden prose I'd single out the sentence "An innate sexuality-in-delivery for many female vocalists hasn't been concomitant with a levelling of subtlety in all too many cases", and there's plenty more where that came from! A legendary song stylist deserves somewhat better, which coupled with only 20 tracks accounts for the 3-star rating.
