AND THE WINNER IS...A
TIE!
Both Ms. Myles and Ms. Marlo and very good singers, better
singers, in fact,
then their short singing careers would indicate. Both albums
are well recorded
and produced. At the Living Room is a little jazzier,
while
Married I Can Always Get benefits from the full swing band arrangements.
If you're a fan of '50s/early '60s female vocalists you should track both
these LPs down.
