 | A sample of the work of the greatest female singer. rating: 5
This DVD, Fever - The Music of Peggy Lee, gives a brief history of the work of Peggy Lee. Her fans agree she was the lovliest of them all with the lovliest voice, the most tasteful styling and a great song writer. And I understand a very decent person. There is not nearly enough of her work recorded on video -- The fault of this recording is that it ends. This one presents 20 of her more successful songs, some information about her career and conversations with her coworkers.

Sensational rating: 5
My only complaint is that I want more. Peggy Lee had quite an eye for the visual when it came to performance (she was the consummate professional) and that comes through loud & clear here. What a voice-what a performer. Watch this DVD and you'll see what I mean. A great introduction to her work for people who aren't familiar.

Terrific film. Like many viewers, I first saw it on public television. I was blown away, bought it immediately afterward, and have watched it many times since.
Her talent and ability for getting maximum results from seemingly minimum effort is amazing. K.D. Lang said, Peggy is the whole thermometer, and anyone will have to agree after viewing two of the tracks in particular: the one of her singing "Fever", from the George Gobel show, and especially the one of her performing "See See Rider", at Basin Street East - sexy and provocative as not to be believed.
Long live Peggy Lee!

Fever - Peggy Lee is great! rating: 5
I love this DVD/documentary. I have watched it five times and not tired of it. Such a fasinating story with excerts of great performances & great songs. Personal remembrances of family and friends. If you love, Peggy Lee, you will love this. If you know little of her, you will not be sorry to learn more!
