Anita locks horns with Barney Kessel, Jimmy Rowles, Tal Farlow and other aces on these 1952-56 sessions.

Few vocalists merited the compliment of singer's singer as thoroughly as Anita O Day. This is Miss O Day at her best. On these sides she sings accompanied by some of the finest rhythm sections, with her hotly wailing beat and an intensely personal, jazz-driven phrasing that is an exciting delight. Above all, there is the warm, husky O Day sound, a happiness, a sensual zest in the pleasures of blowing with the voice, that combine into one of the most infectious delights of jazz listening. She is just as convincing on ballads as on up-tempos, proving to be one of the greatest jazz singers of all times. These recordings are gems of jazz singing.
