I Wonder What Became of Me features 12 early tracks from cabaret vocalist
Anita Ellis recorded in the mid-'50s. The program consists mainly of standards, as she dips into the songbooks of
George and
Ira Gershwin ("They Can't Take That Away from Me"),
Duke Ellington and
Billy Strayhorn ("Something to Live For"),
Richard Rogers and
Lorenz Hart ("Wait Till You See Him"), and
Harold Arlen and
Johnny Mercer ("I Wonder What Became of Me").
Ellis fans will definitely want this set, as so little of her material remains in print.
