Peggy Lee - See See Rider

[MrBobcholmes]

This Lady was always so cool and understated. My absolute favorite for many, many years (still is).I've always wished I could have seen her perform in person.

[MrBobcholmes]

Longtime favorite. Always perfection.

[toastylovesu]

i love this song, and peggy lee, she is amazing



[mickjamm]

This is cool like nothing else... and possibly the sexiest thing ever.

[PearlGirl1943]

Beautiful voice, but after you've heard Ma Rainey sing it, it comes across as shallow and out of place...just my opinion.

[sparky2792]

hey I know the moments POP stars (Brittany et al) get a lot of publicity, but don't forget current singers like Diana Krall , Norah Jones and there's gotta be somebody else! help me out here?

[toyne38]

She is fantastic, and can make any song her own. There is one other woman singer in her league...jo stafford.

[ipolson]

Making this classic Blues song 'swing' was her idea.

[leafyutube]

I'm just picturing Elvis making an entrance to this.

[drednm]

Superb... Peggy Lee was Ice Jazz..... this clip is from a DVD of a TV show called Fever: the Music of Peggy Lee, which is a terrific 60-minute doc of the great singer.

"See See Rider", also known as "C.C. Rider" or "See See Rider Blues" or "Easy Rider" is a popular American 12-bar blues song. It was first recorded by Gertrude "Ma" Rainey in 1924, and since then has been recorded by many other artists; including Peggy Lee and Rory Emerald. ♥

[MILEGULLY]

She was one of my favourites and saw her at least 4 times; anyhow, guys, there were so many fantastic female jazz singers, so check em out: Chris Connors, Anita O'Day, Sarah, Ella, Carmen McRae, Helen Merill, June Christy. Just be careful when you say best! Certainly among the best of the best.

[Sincopare]

Am I dreaming? Lethal note-bending, and a visual 10!

[Robert4770]

OMG sooooooooooooooo sexy she was a SUPERSTAR what a voice

[pipewatcher]

LEGEND!

[LaurieLaRe]

Looks Stunning and probably the best jazz/swing voice in popular music EVER!

[Dresknowsbest]

listen to Jane Monheit. They both are amazing.

[tagalag]

[theguywatchingyou]

[BrockMasters9]

God I wish I had lived in this period.

[TheJazzStreet]

me too! what a classy and sexy lady she was!

[richard67groningen]

Does anybody know from which show her performance was taken? I wonder if she did more songs on that show. I love this performance.

[knifecut]

PERFECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

[kenslavin1961]

This is ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS! It gives me goose bumps! Simply stunning!

[JohnRinNoHo]

Lol! I got goosebumps too!

[manray85]

a voice like vapour, floating over the horns...awesome

[robbnyc2007]

perfection

[cryingsoftly]

I had heard somewhere a female rendition of the song. This was not it (in some ways it is better). I am still trying to figure out who I heard.

[OprahsBackfat]

I agree sincopare. I love how she's already made up to go to makeup for the show. That's a star baby.

[Sincopare]

Lord, whisk me back 50 years so I could have seen this in person!

[GFY1954]

...pure class!

[richard67groningen]

One of the most fascinating stars of all time. This performance proves she is on the very top!

[similau]

Haunting indeed! A gem; thanks for uploading it.
