AN EXCELLENT COPY OF THIS CLASSIC PEGGY LEE 78

FEVER

b/w   YOU DON'T KNOW

In May 1958, Peggy Lee recorded a cover version of the song FEVER in Hollywood, which featured significantly rewritten lyrics composed by Lee herself without credit. "Fever" was not included on Lee's album Things Are Swingin' when it was first released in 1959; however it was listed as a bonus track on its 2004 reissue release The uncopyrighted lyrics by Lee featured historical invokings (including the verses beginning "Romeo loved Juliet," and "Captain Smith and Pocahontas") are now generally thought of as a standard part of the song, and have been included in most subsequent covers of "Fever". Only the first and the fourth verse of the Little Willie John version were used, because it is claimed Lee thought that the second and the third original verses were too risque for her musical tastes.

Lee's cover was a more slow-tempo version than the original; it was described as being in "torchy lounge" mode complete with bass and bongos while the finger snaps were provided by the singer herself. Lee's rendition was further described as "smooth, sultry". It is written in the key of A Minor in a medium swing tempo with 135 beats per minute; Lee's vocals span from the musical note of G3 to B4
