In the 1960s, however, it was a whole new world in popular music. The British Invasion and Motown -- not big bands -- were mainstream, and to the Baby Boomer youths of the 1960s, Lee was part of \"our parents' music.\" But the singer had a major hit with 1969's Is That All There Is?, one of the best-selling albums of her career. While this isn't a rock album per se -- Lee's foundation was still jazz-influenced pop -- it acknowledges pop-rock tastes of the 1960s without being unfaithful to her history. Everything on this LP is a gem, and that includes a moody remake of Lee's 1940s hit \"Don't Smoke in Bed\" as well as classic arrangements of George Harrison's \"Something,\" Neil Diamond's \"Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show,\" Leiber \u0026amp; Stoller's \"I'm a Woman,\" and Randy Newman's \"Love Story.\" The LP's centerpiece, however, is Newman's hit arrangement of Leiber \u0026amp; Stoller's title song, which was covered by P.J. Harvey in the 1990s. Influenced by German cabaret, this half-spoken, half-sung treasure is as hauntingly soulful as it is maudlin. The song's outlook is far from optimistic; essentially, it's saying that we might as well grab our moments of pleasure and enjoyment where we can find them because ultimately, life is nothing more than a meaningless series of disappointments. But there's nothing disappointing about Is That All There Is?, an LP that is most certainly among Lee's finest accomplishments. ~ Alex Henderson\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 11\/17\/2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Peggy Lee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44598527459561,"sku":"PLO3MG-KTZY-00","price":31.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/peggy-lee-is-that-all-therlp_xdnnD.jpg?v=1759261515","url":"https:\/\/www.vibinvinyl.com\/products\/peggy-lee-is-that-all-therlp","provider":"Vibin' Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
