Thinking Of You - Thelma Carpenter

 

Miss You

Thinking Of You...
Thelma Carpenter
Coral Records CRL 757433 CORAL STEREO
1963

From the back cover: Over the years, the one stylist with whom the Carpenter voice and personality have been compared, is the great Ethel Waters. That's tribute in itself. But Thelma Carpenter is no carbon copy of anyone; throughout her steady ascent to stardom, she has always been an authentic and exciting original.

And that career has seen this petite personality come a long way from an "amateur hour" debut at Harlem's famed Apollo Theatre. On Thelma's ladder to success, the rungs were never far apart... vocalist with the Basie Band... headliner on top TV and radio programs... star billing in variety shows... Broadway musicals... recording triumphs... and nightclub engagements – including European tours where her command of five languages paid extra dividends in applause.

Oh How I Miss You Tonight
Just One More Chance
I Get Along Without You Very Well (Except Sometimes)
All Alone
If I Had You
When Day Is Done
Miss You
These Foolish Things (Remind Me Of You)
After You've Gone
Unforgettable
It's Easy To Remember
I'll Be Seeing You
