"I looked over at Margaret, who was surrounded by five guys in a booth. There she was with the hair, the furs and the big gestures. I thought, 'Boy, now that's New York! That's glamour!' I had to meet her." - Jack Wrangler
MARGARET WHITING
July 22, 1924 - January 10, 2011
undoubtedly one of my all time favorite vocalists
ReplyDeleteJack Wrangler is eminently quotable.
ReplyDeleteThe Five guys in a booth had nothing to do with it, I guess?
ReplyDeleteThere's some synchronicity afoot, TJB--Logo showed a documentary about Wrangler the other night, and it went into a lot of detail about his relationship w/her; not only did they both come across as pretty cool, but their relationship finally made a little more sense to me.
ReplyDeleteAnd thank heavens you're back and doing good-these latest posts are all wonderful (I really do think that a lot, a LOT, of us have been missing you)!
Is that a John Engstead photo?
