JONI JAMES, 91
Died 20 February 2022
Singer (traditional pop)
Born Giovanna Carmella Babbo in Chicago. Singer of American traditional pop music. If you like the sounds of Frank Sinatra in the 50s and 60s, this is your gal. I've listened to her a lot on You Tube and she sure had great music. Sadly, until now, I'd never heard of her before.
She retired from the music industry in 1964, to take care of her husband and did so until his death in 1986.
She had seven Top Ten hits
"Why Don't You Believe Me" (#1- 1952)
"Have You Heard" (#4- 1954)
"Your Cheatin' Heart" (#2- 1953)
"Almost Always" (#9- 1953)
"My Love, My Love" (#8- 1953)
"How Important Can It Be" (#2- 1955)
"You Are My Love" (#6- 1955)
