From the back cover: Beauty, charm, intelligence and musical talent! Such are some of the assets of Miss Jane Morgan, one of the most delightful and polished performers in the related entertainment fields of night clubs, the theatre and phonograph recordings.
Born in New England and raised in Florida, the beauteous Miss Morgan studied at the famed Juilliard School of Music, working at the same time with a dance orchestra in a Manhattan hotel so as to get much-needed experience and financial assistance. Discovered by the French impresario, Bernard Hilda, she developed into an eminently successful night-club performer in Paris, later touring the leading bistros in the various capitals of Europe.
Returning to America, she headlined at not one, but two leading New York hotels, the Plaza and the Pierre, at the Palmer House in Chicago, the Desert Inn in Las Vegas, the Eden Roc and many more in Miami Beach, entranced millions of Americans on numerous top TV shows, appeared in several musical comedies, and established herself as one of the country's leading singers via her highly successful recordings on the Kapp label, including her top-selling version of Fascination.
From Billboard - November 3, 1958: This is one of Miss Morgan's finest offerings. he deluxe two-disk set is attractively packaged, highlighted by a lovely cover shot of the artist. Songs from man of the great shows, from 1900, to the present are given lush, warm vocals by the thrush, with good instrumental backings. It's a wonderful item.
