From Billboard - March 17, 1962: Peggy's back, and this time in a blues mood – with sad blues, happy blues, and swinging blues. She sings them in her own delightful style, aided muchly by the fine arrangements of ork leader Quincy Jones. The tunes cover the U.S.A. with such items as "Kansas City," "Basin Street Blues," "Goin' To Chicago Blues" and "New York City Blues." The album's a gas.
