15032014 - Violetta Villas "Nie Ma Miłości Bez Zazdrości"

The album title translates as "There Is No Love Without Jealousy", and this album was released in 1977, a time when apparently this Polish diva, actress and songstress extraordinaire found herself isolated in her native country of Poland where she had returned to her dying mother. Before this she had a career in Las Vegas from 1966, where she was the star at the Dunes Hotel and Casino, singing duets with Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr, Barbara Streisand and Eartha Kitt, to name a few. This is definitely Vegas music, with lyrics all sung in Polish. Her voice is simply amazing, and the songs have all the drama and pathos of her English singing peers, and it's easy to imagine Ms. Villas on stage, dazzling the audience with her performances.

  1. Nice, this is her first album released in Poland since 1967 and the last original album of her career.
