What are /mu/'s thoughts on Jane Morgan? Where does she rank among 40's/50's vocal-slop singers? Thread themes:

AFAIK she was popular in Europe or something in the 40s and then later had a few US hits but I'm not that familiar with her. Pretty sure it was fairly stock jazz pop she was doing.

Yep. Generic as hell. Not super taken with this.

All they needed was Sincerely or The Wayward Wind to round out that list.

She was recording in Yurop on Polydor since 1947 but didn't break here until the 50s.

Another Doris Day imitator. Yay.

That song is kind of goofy and charming, though.
