Great songs and intimate moments are to be found with Peggy Lee in this extremely enjoyable album. Released in 1959, "I Like Men" is one of Peggy Lee's most fun albums with hits from Gus Kahn, Eubie Blake and Cole Porter. Peggy Lee at her best!

"If you’re bemused by the current obsession with ‘the American Songbook’ – even the BBC got in on the act with a week of specials devoted to it – this is an ideal time to hear one of the finest practitioners of the genre, before it became retro-cool. Ms Lee, arguably one of the half-dozen or so finest female popular music vocalists of the 20th Century, sexily slides through a dozen lesser-known gems, including her politically-incorrect composition which provides this LP with its utterly non-contemporary title. But stuff that: this is an album to play after you’ve run out of Mad Men DVDs, when you long for a time when men were men and women didn’t mind it." - Ken Kessler, Hi-Fi News, Sound Quality Rating: 85%
