Liner Note Author: Benjamin V. Franklin. Recording information: Los Angeles, CA (01/04/1956-12/20/1956). Director: Buddy Bregman. Unknown Contributor Role: Guildhall String Ensemble. Arranger: Buddy Bregman. For this well-rounded CD reissue that adds nine cuts to the original program, Anita O'Day, in her prime period, is mostly heard accompanied by Buddy Bregman & His Orchestra, but there are also a few tracks on which she is joined by a jazz combo featuring trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison. Highlights include "Don't Be That Way," "Stompin' at the Savoy," "Pick Yourself Up," "Sweet Georgia Brown," and "I Won't Dance." Virtually all of Anita O'Day's 1950s recordings are recommended, for her drug use had not yet affected her voice and her creativity was generally at its height. ~ Scott Yanow
