1948 studio album by Peggy Lee From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rendezvous with Peggy Lee is the debut solo album by Peggy Lee, released on Capitol Records in 1948 on three 78-rpm shellac records. Backed by husband Dave Barbour and His Orchestra, the original record featured five jazz standards and one original composition, "Don't Smoke in Bed", which itself later became a standard. The original tune was co-penned by Lee, Barbour, and Willard Robison, but was credited only to Robison after he fell seriously ill. The album reached number two on the Billboard Best-Selling Popular Record Albums chart.[1]

Will Davidson wrote for the Chicago Sunday Tribune, "the records represent Peggy's best. Not all of them ARE her best, but all are worthy examples of her work. Several are stupendous."[2]
