I love lee wiley and this is my favorite of her albums....Plus it was great to see the Globe Theater at 1:29. My dad took me to see Gentlemen Prefer Blondes there for my 10th birthday...it was the only present I asked for ( yes I was a bit of a girlie boy ! )

What a TREAT!!! I've never seen a number of those recording session photos, and the footage of NY just makes me want to go back. Lee was SUCH a treasure. I wish more people knew of her great recordings. Thanks for posting!!

This fabulous version was recorded in 1950 and not in 1951! Thanks for posting!

Thanks to who ever uploaded this. As I look for music to memorialize my mom's recent passing, this definitely will be a part of my mom's story. I remember listening to this Lee Wiley album when I was a kid visiting my dad's loft in NYC during the early 60's. Thanks for the memories.

@Rena1934 yes, it really is! How could that be? With such a great library of wonderful recordings, you would think there would be something on film. So glad you are in contact with her family. i hope they know there are many who still appreciate her.

@2:55, there's Judy Garland, in brief view from her movie, "The Clock". Love that movie.
Piper Laurie gave an acclaimed performance of Lee Wiley, in a tv special, "Something About Lee Wiley", sometime ago.

@renew2day Yep! you caught it! -- that's Judy. I'll have to look for that Piper Laurie special. Would love to see it.

I've always seen a resemblance between Lee Wiley and that fabulous actress, Ann Dvorak.
