Jasmine Records Margaret WHITING - The One And Only CD

Whether having a famous parent in the music business is an asset to any aspiring offspring is debatable. Consider having to live up to expectations, reaching the heights reached by one's mother or father - not an easy task if that person is, say, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra or Judy Garland. The Crosby brood did not ultimately succeed, and who could compete with Frank? But lucky for us, Miss Garland's girl, Liza Minelli, made the grade, and even if you don't recall Allan Jones (of Donkey Serenade fame), his son Jack Jones will be familiar. For Margaret Whiting, it was slightly different - her father Richard was well-respected in the business as a composer.
