While listening to last Sunday's David Jacobs Collection, I heard a cute song, "I Like To Recognise The Tune" by Carol Kidd. Mr Jacobs said it was a Rodgers and Hart song. But I've never heard it before. And I've never heard of Carol Kidd. There are many recordings on the hmv website. Who is Carol Kidd? Is she still recording? She has an interesting sound.

Hi Paul-I have heard of Carol Kidd--and heard her sing once or twice--she has been around a while, but has never neen very successful--I do not know much else about her-Marian

Hello everyone!
I met Carol Kidd in Edinburgh when I was knocking about
with Humphrey lyttelton and his band.
Humph' loved her singing.
She has the Ella " little girl" quality about her.
A few years later she sang with Humph's band in
Barnes, London at the famous jazz pub "The Bull's Head".
She is a lovely singer.
Barry.

I have her lovely song WHEN I DREAM on cd. She says she will never sing it live again as her guitarist has died.
