Doris

Doris Svensson (shortly just Doris) is a Swedish singer. She started out in the beginning of the 1960s. In 1963 she debuted on Swedish Television in the show Drop In (at the very same show as The Beatles, during their first international tour after their break-through).
She sang "Save All Your Love For Me" backed up by The Telstars and Gals and Pals.



Later on she were in bands such as The Plums and The Dandys before she recorded the remarkable album soul/jazz album 'Did You Give the World Some Love Today Baby' with Berndt Egerbladh. That album wasn't a hit at the time but become a well sought-after gem during the mid 1990s and was re-issued and received attention from alternative soul/funk/jazz aficionados around the word and some of the album tracks has been sampled by well-known hip-hop acts.

Chicken Feathers

This post from Quimsy's Mumbo Jumbo hits the trifecta for me....swinging jazz combo, great vocals, AND weird song titles....."The Saga of Harrison Crabfeathers", "Pearlie's Swine", and the title track "Chicken Feathers". When I'm not obsessively watching President Obama's every televised move today, I'll listen to it some more.
