The notorious Bettie Page

best_bettie_lg.jpg

Bettie Page in her famous Africa USA photo shoot in Boca Raton, Florida as shot by Bunny Yeager. Page is posed in a leopard print swimsuit holding the chains to two (stuffed) cheetahs. This is one of (at least) three covers used by Halo with the same photo.   All the music is just generic chorus and orchestra pablum.   This one is “The Best Musical Comedy Songs” (1957).
