Peggy Lee was a performer without peer — a singer, songwriter, actress and artist who spanned genres and generations with music that remains vital and captivating. Sultry and swinging, Peggy’s biggest hits are featured here: “Fever,” “I’m a Woman,” “Alright, Okay You Win,” “Lover,” “Big Spender,” “It’s a Good Day” and the Grammy Award-winning “Is That All There Is?” This special collection of Peggy’s television appearances also offers an enticing variety of more favorites: “I Can’t Stop Loving You,” “Unforgettable,” “I Don’t Know Enough About You,” “Somebody Loves Me,” “Mañana,” “Me and My Shadow,” “The Lonesome Road,” “He’s Gone Away,” “So What’s New,” “Louisville Lou” and “Things Are Swingin’” — plus performances with Johnny Cash, Petula Clark, Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme, a new featurette with Michael Feinstein and a salute from Paul McCartney.
