Longing for You on CD

Ohio-born Teresa Brewer started singing on local radio from age five. Signed to the newly formed London label in her late teens she quickly scored a massive world-wide number one hit with "Music! Music! Music!" and between 1950 and the end of 1954 she placed 14 entries in the American Top Thirty. Five of those hits are included on this Sepia CD. Brewer had a long performing career spanning over thirty years which also included a short stint as a movie star. She later recorded with Duke Ellington and other top jazz musicians, but the songs featured here, recorded early in her career, were mainly fun, novelty numbers appealing to the teenage market. As far as we know the 28 tracks here are appearing on CD in Britain for the first time and are all re-mastered from the original 78 s.
