Mrs. Miller - Will Success Spoil Mrs. Miller?! (1966)


Earlier this week one of my cats attacked me when I started singing "I Could Have Danced All Night" in my best Mrs. Miller voice (everyone's a critic). So, I thought today would be a good day to post one of my Mrs. Miller albums. How can anyone not love Mrs. Miller? I only wish that I had been aware of her back in her hey-day (I only found out about her a few years ago and quickly snatched up all her albums via eBay and HPB). If I had seen her on Ed Sullivan or one of those shows, I think I would have remembered her. Anyway, I love Mrs. Miller and listening to her albums. If I'm feeling down, I know that one of her records will chase the blues away. I know they chase my cats away. (And my cat-inflicted wounds are healing nicely, thank you.)

  1. I do remember seeing Mrs. M. On Ed Sullivan. We (meaning me, my sisters) could not figure out whether she was meant to be serious. I still can't...

  2. The inspiration for the album title must be the movie "Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?", starring Tony Randall and Jayne Mansfield.
