los angeles blues - peggy lee

The Guardian Unlimited blog collects songs about California.

The Oscars are almost upon us, so I'm going to have two weeks of related themes. The first is songs about California. Most of them will cover Los Angeles, I'd imagine, but anywhere from San Jose to Modesto is fine, not to mention songs about the state as a whole. (According to Wikipedia, San Diego has almost twice the population of San Francisco. Who knew?) We've already had California Uber Alles, Screenwriter's Blues, Burn Hollywood Burn and Celluloid Heroes, but I think that's all.

Will the creator of Los Angeles, Mach I & II please get over there? (You know who you are.)
