Celebrated singer Lee Wiley (1908-1975) was extremely popular from the 1930s to the 1950s, during which time she recorded with some of the most important jazz names from the period. Presented in their entireties on this set are Wiley’s splendid LPs "West of the Moon" (RCA Victor LPM-1408) and "A Touch of the Blues" (RCA Victor LPM-1566), which marked the last successful albums of her career, as she retired in the early 1960s (she would make a brief return to singing in her very last years).
