Her albums "Julie...At Home" and "Around Midnight" (both released in 1960) were both included in the book "1,000 Recordings to Hear Before You Die". She has been named as an influence by several contemporary artists, including Lana Del Rey. Music journalist Will Friedwald referred to London as "one of the most influential stylists of the early 20th century." London also inspired a tribute from Jools Holland and Jamiroquai as part of their music video version of "I'm in the Mood for Love" shortly after her passing.
