Eydie Gorme - Amor (1964)

I love Eydie Gorme. I grew up listening to her "Amor" and "More Amor" albums. Every weekend, my mother would play those two albums while she baked or did school work (she was a teacher), and I listened while I played with my Barbies or cut pictures out of teen magazines. When my mother passed away in 1993, I (being an only child) inherited her record collection, thus adding to my own already nice-sized collection. I still listen to these albums, and they bring back wonderful memories of being a little girl with not a care in the world. "Amor" is my favorite of the two, so I am posting it in honor of Eydie's birthday yesterday (August 16). If there is enough interest, I will post the "More Amor" album later.

My father passed away recently. I brought his albums home with me and started playing Eydie Gorme. I'd forgotten how much I loved this album. Every time I listen to it, I feel my dad with me. Looking for More Amor digital files if anyone knows where to find it.

Hi, LDelgado,

I'm very sorry to hear about your father's passing. I hope you find comfort in listening to this album. You can also find the "More Amor" album on this blog - just click on the Eydie Gorme label and you'll see all her albums that I have posted.

Thanks for listening!
Esther

I LOVE Eydie Gorme!
Thanks for posting this!
I'm planning on making a vinyl sharity blog also, and I'm gonna try to post her album Don't Talk To Strangers.

P.S. I'm a Leo too! I was on Wikipedia, and apparently Eydie Gorme is an August 14th Leo.
Cheers!

I just found an Eydie Gorme' vinyl album "Love Is A Season" in fantastic condition. Open, but plastic still protecting the cover, 25 other albums from that era in a collectors set.

Can anyone let me know if it is of any financial value.
