Ann-Margret Olsson (born April 28, 1941) is a Swedish-American actress, singer and dancer whose professional name is Ann-Margret. She became famous for her starring roles in Bye, Bye Birdie, Viva Las Vegas, The Cincinnati Kid, Carnal Knowledge, and Tommy. With Bye Bye Birdie (1963) and Viva Las Vegas (1964) opposite Elvis Presley, she became a Top 10 Box Office star, teen idol and even Golden Globe winning actress. In 1961, her single "I Just Don't Understand" charted in the Top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100 Charts. Her later career includes character roles in Grumpy Old Men, Any Given Sunday, The Santa Clause 3, and The Break-Up. She has won five Golden Globe Awards and been nominated for two Academy Awards, two Grammy Awards, a Screen Actors Guild Award, and six Emmy Awards. On August 21, 2010, she won her first Emmy Award for her guest appearance on Law & Order: SVU.
Ann-Margret began recording for RCA in 1961. Her first RCA recording was "Lost Love" from her debut album And Here She Is: Ann-Margret, produced in Nashville with Chet Atkins on guitar, the Jordanaires (Elvis Presley's backup singers), and the Anita Kerr Singers, with liner notes by mentor George Burns. She had a sexy throaty singing voice and RCA attempted to capitalize on the 'female Elvis' comparison by having her record a version of "Heartbreak Hotel" and other songs stylistically similar to Presley's. She scored the minor hit "I Just Don't Understand" (from her second LP) which entered the Billboard Top 40 in the third week of August 1961 and stayed six weeks, peaking at 17. The song was later covered in live performances by The Beatles, who never officially recorded any version of the song. Her only charting album was The Beauty and the Beard (1964) on which she was accompanied by trumpeter Al Hirt. She also sang at the Academy Awards presentation in 1962, singing the Oscar-nominated song "Bachelor in Paradise". Her contract with RCA ended in 1966. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, she had hits on the dance charts, the most successful being 1979's "Love Rush" which peaked at number eight on the disco/dance charts.
Since 1967 she has been married to Roger Smith, and is the stepmother of his three children. Ann-Margaret is considered iconic and legendary, remaining one of Hollywood's top sex symbols and one of the most famous women in America.

Caros João e Carlos,
A minha Páscoa já está pra lá de boa graças à generosidade de vocês e a este magnífico box set da esplendorosa Ann-Margret. Por favor, como retribuição pela educação, gentileza e atenção de vocês, fiquem a vontade para me perguntar sobre alguma coisa que vocês queiram e, quem sabe, eu possa ter. Tenho musicais, trilhas sonoras, algo de easy listening, crooners (gosto muito de Matt Monro, Frank Sinatra e Dean Martin), alguma MPB, etc. Seria um prazer poder retribuir a vocês de alguma forma.Já sou "seguidor" de vocês e com direito a carteirinha com retrato 3X4 colorido. Boa páscoa a vocês caros amigos João e Carlos, obrigado de novo e mandem, por favor, um "best wishes" para a Gilda por mim lá no belíssimo Canadá.
Obrigado Cassio pela sua simpática participação e pela disponibilidade em colaborar com o blog.
Relativamente a isso, poderá sempre enviar-nos por link qualquer álbum que você entenda que faz falta neste blog, dentro do espírito dos anos 60.
Tentamos conseguir álbuns diferentes, raros ou de algum modo, com algum interesse especial, isto é, saindo daquela música ou álbuns muito comerciais, "normais" ou rotineiros, entende?
Quando às trilhas sonoras, estamos colocando apenas alguns álbuns que para nós têm muito interesse, como o Hair ou Jesus Christ Superstar, mas essa é mais a especialização de meu amigo RATO (Rato Cinéfilo). Agradecemos na mesma.
Se você tiver e puder disponibilizar álbuns pouco conhecidos, B's sides, raros, mesmo de cantores ou grupos bem conhecidos, como MPB, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin ou outros, serão muito bem vindos!
Uma boa Páscoa pra vc.Já mandamos suas lembranças e agradecimento a nossa amiga Gilda (Canada)
Abraços,
João Romão e Carlos Santos
Faz tempo que andava à procura desta colecção da Ann-Margret. Infelizmente todos os ficheiros foram ripados a 128 kbps. Enfim..., lá terei de continuar a procurar...
Pois Jota, foi precisamente assim que me enviaram o link. Pode ser que apareça com melhor bitrate.
Abraço,
Carlos
