This is an album of Peggy Lee's early original recordings made with the Benny Goodman orchestra recorded in 1941-'43. The "Harmony" Lp was released in 1957 and was a reissue of the 1952 Columbia EP which contained 4 songs; "That Did It Marie, My Old Flame, Elmer's Tune and "We'll Meet Again". For some reason neither the EP or the LP contains Peggy Lee's first hit with the Goodman orchestra, "Somebody Else Is Taking My Place".[2][3]
