    Peggy promoted The Man I Love on television throughout the summer and fall of 1957, singing the album’s title song on The Jackie Gleason Show, My Heart Stood Still on The Nat King Cole Show, and — on two different episodes of The Frank Sinatra Show — That’s All and He’s My Guy, aided by conductor Sinatra himself. The song The Folks Who Live on the Hill held particular significance for Peggy and is the most frequently anthologized of the album’s tracks. She sang it again on her 1966 television special, included it on albums in 1977 and 1992, and regularly featured it in concert, including her final performances in 1995 at Carnegie Hall and the Hollywood Bowl.
