Easy Does It is a 1968 album by singer Julie London.
By 1967, Julie London was on her way to exiting her long-term contract with Liberty Records. Her second-to-last long player appropriately titled Easy Does It remains probably her most sensuous and magnanimously-mystique performance of her illustrious career. She is not only in top-form, but the orchestration is the best suited for London's sexual undertones and wavy overlays. Alas, a new generational fold was opened, and London's repertoire was soon overtaken by the singer-songwriter style of both pop and rock of the 1970's. Interpretations of the folk-styled "Show Me the Way to Go Home" will have you lethargic, while her take on the sentimental standard "The Man I Love" makes one drip with pleasure and left in limbo. What makes this album so unique is that it remains the only one of Julie's never to be issued on compact disc. If you can find it, or have the urge to seek out something totally obsolete... do so. Released by Liberty Records under catalog number LRP-3546 as a monophonic recording and LST-7546 as a stereophonic.
