Sad news. What a great voice, what a great singer. What a great, uncompromising lady.

When I was a kid (late 1950s through the '60s), my parents filled the house with the music of the crooners, iincluding Peggy Lee. While all the other kids were singing "Yeah Yeah Yeah" and "I Wanna Hold Your Hand", I was singing "Is that all there is?" and "Fever". My gain, their loss!
