Product Description
Vocalist Rosemary Clooney was the archetypal 50s showbiz personality, and her rise to fame was built on her skill as a big band and jazz singer honed during the post-war years allied to some
inspired song selection. Her talent as an excellent lyric interpreter, with effortless timing and phrasing, and an ability to give her performances the dramatic quality evident among all great
singers, ensured she had a string of hits right through the decade. Indeed, Clooney had 13 Top 40 hits in the early '50s, among them duets with Guy Mitchell and Marlene Dietrich validating her
position among the finest jazz-based vocalists in American music. The recordings in this collection were made for radio transcriptions from 1951-52, a period when she had just received her
first major commercial successes and so represent unique performances of these songs. This 18-track release includes 2 bonus tracks from 1959, along with extensive and informative liner notes. On The Air captures Rosemary as her star is in the ascendant and features many of the biggest orchestras of the day.
