Peggy Lee was an American jazz and traditional pop singer and songwriter and Oscar-nominated performer. She was born Norma Deloris Egstrom and was famous for her "soft and cool" singing style. Though she recorded dozens of hit songs (many of which she wrote or cowrote), Lee might be best known for her interpretation of the Davenport/Cooley composition "Fever" and the song written by her and Dave Barbour, "It's a Good Day."

One of my favourite music writers is, as it happens, a Canadian: Gene Lees, the jazz critic and lyricist ( Quiet Night of Quiet Stars and a ton of other Antonio Carlos Jobim bossa novas). www.macleans.ca/culture/entertainment/article.jsp?content...
