Often, as is the case here with Kathy Barr, the record is very good, or excellent even, and there seems to be no reason besides dumb bad luck and a fickle American public that the singer didn't skyrocket to the stars alongside famous others of their time. This 1957 LP is the only solo recording by Ms. Barr from the 1950s; she did appear again with Giorgio Tozzi the following year to present highlights from THE DESERT SONG, and then popped out one more solo LP in 1964 before leaving her music career behind to focus on raising a family. Kathy Barr died in 2008 in Hollywood... Florida. She was 79 years old.
