I just found out that Kitty Kallen has died. She had such a smooth voice and was spotlighted here on Music For Every Mood in this post. Born Katie Kallen on May 25, 1921, she passed away at her home in Cuernavaca, Mexico last Thursday, January 7th, 2016. If you happen upon a recording of hers, don't pass it by. Her singing was wonderful!
And a special treat for her fans out there - here's one of the last songs she recorded - Raining In My Heart. It had been a posthumous hit for Buddy Holly in 1959 and Kitty's version is from 1961, the year I was born. Here then is Kitty Kallen doing the lush big band sound of "Raining In My Heart."
