Tracks list

Peggy Lee's I'm a Woman LP is a good example of a quickie album project put
together on the fly to take advantage of a hit single rising up the chart, in
this case, of course, the R&B-inflected title song written by Jerry Leiber and
Mike Stoller. Benny Carter conducted that track, as well as the jazzy version of
"I'll Get By" here, but the rest of the short (under half an hour) disc was
handled by Dick Hazard, who brought in a small, versatile band to come up with
blues, jazz, and Latin arrangements of some familiar material including Fats
Domino's "I'm Walkin'," the Bobby Darin hit "Mack the Knife," and the Tony
Bennett hit "I Left My Heart in San Francisco." No one involved, including Lee,
seems to have taken the session too seriously — they didn't have time to
— but that's precisely the record's charm. The musicians simply play what
occurs to them, and Lee blissfully rolls over the top. She makes fun of "Mack
the Knife," and why not? The range and speed demanded in Antonio Carlos Jobim's
"One Note Samba" almost throw her, but there might not have been time for
another take. The music is somewhat rushed all the way through, but that makes
it all the more lively and fits in with the rollicking hit it is meant to
accompany. ~ William Ruhlmann
