This site assembles the best and most complete information on Julie London’s music, movies, photographs and articles with links to other key web sites. I really only “discovered” the extraordinary talent of Julie London well after her death in 2000. I think she was an amazing singer and entertainer. Surprisingly, Julie didn’t like to listen to her own records, didn’t like to perform in public and had a very low opinion of her own musical talents. How wrong she was. She makes singing the Mickey Mouse Club theme song an erotic experience. Singing just above a whisper, Julie creates an immediate intimacy drawing her audience in. It’s like she is singing to you alone.

    My initial focus, was to use this site to showcase Julie London’s wonderful musical gift. However, the more I got into the project, it led to the many beautiful photographs of Julie, her movie and television work and more than 80 articles about her life and career which give insight into many aspects of this remarkable treasure of an entertainer. My efforts have evolved into what amounts to an online biography of Julie London.

    Use this site to check out her album covers. Music critics were never quite sure if Julie’s albums were bought for the musical content or the sexy album cover photograph. A Liberty Records executive once remarked, “She’s the only singer I know who can sell albums to men who don’t own record players.” Listen to her music. I’ve included Julie’s Marlboro commercials, a special Japanese television show with Julie singing some of her classics as well as hamming it up on the Jack Benny Show. There is also an excellent special on Julie produced by the BBC TV in 2006. If you are wondering who is Julie London and why should I be interested? Then watch the BBC Julie London biography. I love the TV Guide article. By today’s insane politically correct standards, the author would never have lunch in this town again.

    Bobby Troup was engaged to Julie for six years before they were married. There aren’t many Hollywood marriages that last even six years. Click on the “Gossip” tab to follow how the Monday morning quarterbacks in the gossip columns tracked the couple.

    Please enjoy this remarkable woman who never appreciated her own talents and was never swept up by her own persona. Perhaps that’s what makes her a great standout performer. We haven’t had an entertainer as beautiful, talented and classy since Julie London. Come on in and enjoy her talent with me.
