  2. Actor Rory Calhoun (1922-1999)

    As a young man he appeared to be headed for a life of crime - stealing a revolver at 13. He left home when he was 17, eventually spending three years in federal prison for car theft across state lines + robbery of jewelry stores. Paroled at 21, Calhoun turned his life around after a chance meeting with actor Alan Ladd, which led to him being signed as an actor with David O Selznick. He was known for his roles in Westerns both on film + television.

  9. SpaceAce Sunday | Julie London with The Bud Shank Quintet – All Through The Night: Julie London Sings the Choicest of Cole Porter (1965, US)

    The next album submitted to the project by SpaceAce aka J, our dearly missed friend, is number 1052 on The List.

    This is pin-up model-turned actress-turned singer Julie London’s 24th of 29 studio albums. J had a handful of Julie’s albums, so it’s not a bad idea to listen to another one or two of her albums after this one. Not bad at all.

    This one is for you romantics out there. All Through The Night was pin-up model-turned actress-turned singer Julie London’s 24th of 29 studio albums, and it’s just as gorgeous – maybe even moreso? – as her debut from a decade prior, Julie Is Her Name (1955).[1] J had a handful of Julie’s albums, so it’s not a bad idea to listen to another album or two after this one. Not bad at all.

    Btw, exactly one year ago, we had our first SpaceAce spotlight, when J was still with us. If you didn’t catch J’s review of Forest’s The Full Circle the first time, take a look. The post is technically a glorified link to our friend Puffer’s Digital LoFi blog where J’s review lives, but seeing his comment at the bottom of the post here always makes me smile.

    Thanks, J.

    1. Our other dearly missed friend and artist, Norn Cutson (@n69n) started their delightful “Record Collection” series with a tribute to Julie’s debut album, seen here. ↩︎

  15. Julie London - Julie is My Name - Volume 2

    A set of standards sung into a very close mic by Julie London, accompanied by guitar and bass, from 1958.

    Well recorded, although a bit weird, with the vocals sometimes centered, and sometimes hard left.

    (I had no idea that Julie London was once married to Jack Webb of Dragnet fame, and also played Dixie McCall on Emergency!)

  16. Another great song that, like Claire Austin's "Oh, Daddy," is not a torch song, although it is about a breakup. Julie London, "Cry Me a River." Update. I listed to "Oh, Daddy" again. It is indeed a torch song. I was wrong. But I don't think "Cry Me a River" is. /update

  17. Julie London's version of Fly Me to the Moon for #JukeboxFridayNight and the theme of #TransportTunes #PlanesTrainsAndAutomobiles

    It's a song that a lot of people will associate with Sinatra, but while we both love crooners, Sinatra just leaves us absolutely cold. Julie London, on the other hand, gives me a lovely, warm feeling.

  18. En algún lugar del más allá, #ChetBaker va todas las noches a escuchar a #JulieLondon, está perdidamente enamorado, pero ella no le corresponde porque es una mujer casada. Mientras tanto, desde una mesa solitaria y distante, fingiendo tomar un café, #HenryFonda admira silenciosa y felizmente a #TakashiShimura, que se muere una y otra vez, sin saber qué hacer, más vivo que todos nosotros.
