Arranger: Bob Cooper.

Through her decade-long tenure on Capitol Records, the singer June Christy rarely recorded a less-than-stellar session. Most of her LPs were carefully programmed, arranged, and, of course, sung. (As with a classical singer, these professional habits only enhanced Christy's artistry.) BALLADS FOR NIGHT PEOPLE from 1959 also boasts relaxed, jazzy arrangements by the singer's husband, saxophonist Bob Cooper, a fellow alumnus of Stan Kenton's band. There are two Duke Ellington classics,"Do Nothin' Till You Hear From Me" and "Don't Get Around Much Anymore," a definitive version of Kurt Weill's "My Ship," and an arresting performance of Rodgers & Hart's "Bewitched (Bothered & Bewildered)" which dramatically opens the set.
