Autumn Leaves
Jacqueline Francois
Columbia Masterworks ML 4780
1953
From the back cover: It is most fitting that Jacqueline Francois's first Columbia release be a collection of songs which have either originated in France and become popular in America or are American hits (such as Rodgers and Hammerstein's It Might As Well Be Spring) which later found favor in France. No other French singer has had quite the same kind of appeal to American audiences as Jacqueline Francois; her success has not been based on a unique personality, or by adherence to "typically French" repertoire, but on the unexpectedly American qualities which she possesses.
