Artist: O'DAY, ANITA
Title: Sings for Oscar / Pick Yourself Up
Label:
Lonehill Jazz
Cat No
LHJ10320
• Two of the best jazz vocal LPs of 1957 from one of the great female stylists, both of which were five-star rated by Downbeat
• Oscar Peterson was one of Anita O'Day's favourite musicians. After his death at the end of 2007 this is a timely reminder of his superb accompanying work from an earlier period while the singer proves herself one of the few genuine jazz vocalists with original interpretations of a set of standards including "Old Devil Moon", "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered".
• "Pick Yourself Up" was recorded with the star-studded Buddy Bregman Orchestra: members included the Candoli brothers, Stan Getz, Jimmy Giuffre, Bud Shank etc
