Les Baxter's La Femme is an album by French conductor Franck Pourcel and His French Strings. It was released in 1956 on the Capitol label (catalog no. T-10015). Upon its release, Billboard magazine gave the album a rating of 77 and wrote: "'La Femme' might be called a 'pop' symphony, in a dozen movements, dedicated to woman -- her eyes, lips, arms, hands, etc. The pieces are reflective of the mysteries of femininity, and the whole attractive opus is the work of Les Baxter."
