Nobody Else But Me by Betty Bennett, released in 1955 on Atlantic

Betty Bennett (October 23, 1921 – April 7, 2020) was an American jazz and big band singer.

Bennett was born in October 1921 in Lincoln, Nebraska, United States. Her first major signing was with the Claude Thornhill band in 1946, the band in which her husband, bassist Iggy Shevak, was playing. Shortly after her husband left to join Alvino Rey, Bennett followed him there. In 1949, she joined Charlie Ventura's band, before going on to join Benny Goodman in 1959.

Her second album, Nobody Else but Me, featured arrangements by Shorty Rogers and her second husband, André Previn. Bennett later married guitarist Mundell Lowe in 1975. - Wikipedia

In Love Again! is a 1964 studio album by Peggy Lee, arranged by Dick Hazard, Bill Holman and Shorty Rogers.

William Ruhlmann wrote for Allmusic:

"..There's nothing revelatory on In Love Again!, just 12 quality performances from a highly identifiable singer who is not shy about taking other people's material and re-imagining it or about coming up with her own vehicles."
