" ,"Beauty and the Beat!", "Latin ala Lee!", "All Aglow Again!", "Pretty Eyes", "Christmas Carousel", "Olé ala Lee", "Basin Street East Proudly Presents Miss Peggy Lee", "If You Go", "Blues Cross Country" and "Sugar 'N' Spice".

It features performances with Nelson Riddle, Billy May, George Shearing, Quincy Jones, Frank Sinatra, Dave Barbour, Benny Carter, Gordon Jenkins, Hal Mooney, Victor Young, Sy Oliver, Joseph Lilley and Jack Marshall.
