It is a sunny Sunday, and I am in the mood for some campy music by a 50s/60s wannabe diva - and who better to fill the bill than the lovely Jane Morgan?
Some little-known facts about Jane:
- Although American, she was a contender to sing the UK Eurovision entry in 1959.
- Jane made her big break in showbiz in 'Club des Champs Elysées' in Paris.
- She was the first to have a hit with What Now My Love?, the English version of an old French chanson.
- She took over the lead in Mame on Broadway from Angela Lansbury in 1969.
- at the ripe old age of 88, she currently lives in retirement in Malibu and Palm Springs, California.
