Between September 1957 and October 1958 the eminent vocalist Jane Morgan recorded a series of performances that show the wide variety of styles she was capable of singing. A great interpreter of classic American song, she reworks a repertoire made famous by Frank Sinatra and Doris Day but makes it entirely her own. She is equally at home with a more upbeat style of song such as "Catch A Falling Star" or a tune like 'Melodie d'Amour' that shows off Morgan's feel for the French language. In 'The Day the Rains Came', we have a timely reminder of Jane Morgan as an all-out pop singer, reaching the top spot in the UK singles chart in January 1959. In the French version, "Le Jour Ou La Pluie Viendra" she has a slightly grittier attack, using a quasi-Piaf fast vibrato to centre her performance in the style of the French nightclubs where she made her name. Together, these two tracks epitomize Jane Morgan's ability to tailor her performance to the material she was singing, a rare quality which is apparent throughout this 27 track collection and another good reason why the work of this overlooked singer deserves to be revaluated.
