CD Reviews

Doris Day & The Page Cavanaugh Trio are heavenly
Aaron Bacerra | 12/21/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Everyone knows Doris Day as the "girl next door" a great actress who fit perfectly into the comedic roles she portrayed, however most don't know she was also a very prolific jazz singer, who didn't get a chance often enough to sing in a creative jazz setting. Well, you're in for a great surprise, Day has found her challenge in jazz pianist Page Cavanaugh(his trio). The Page Cavanaugh Trio backs Day on several of the numbers including I've Got A Feelin' You're Foolin', Just You, Just Me,You Brought A New Kind Of Love To Me, I Could Write A Book and Star Dust. Day is also backed by Van Alexader's swinging big band, however one must admit, Cavanaugh's creative and improvisational piano solos are a highlight, and they inspire the jazz singer in Day. This is the finest example of Doris Day as a full on jazz singer, with her greatest backup ever in Cavanaugh. This cd made up of radio transcriptions is wonderful and will no doubt prove what a truly gifted singer can do in the right settings. A great disc... four stars all the way"
A treat for Doris day fans!

"This disc is a real treat for anyone who's ever lamented how Doris day's gal-next-door vocals often got buried under heavy string sections (or was bouyed by them, depending on your point of view...) The opening tracks simply feature her and a spare piano accompaniment, courtesy of Page Cavanaugh and his lightly audible trio... Even when backed by a slightly larger combo, Day's vocals are still unchallenged, and fill center stage. Maybe not the most vigorous performances of her career, but a nice chance to hear her in a relaxed, casual setting. Doris Day fans will definitely not want to miss out on these rare early 'Fifties radio transcription recordings."
