Singer Peggy Lee, whose sultry voice belted out blues, jazz and ballads for more than four decades, died at her Bel Air home on Monday night, her family reported. She was 81.
One of the best-loved female singers in America, the ash blond with the tied-back hair recorded more than 60 albums containing over 600 songs during her career, including such classics as “Fever,” “Manana,” “Lover,” “Golden Earrings,” “Big Spender” and “Is That All There Is?” the latter winning her a Grammy Award in 1969.
Bye, Peggy. Keep dancing, break out the booze, and have a ball.
