Description: | Wanna know??and wanna hear??how
Doris Day became one of the biggest
multimedia stars on the planet? This
24-track collection carefully culls Doris??
finest and rarest performances from over
a decade of appearances on the radio,
where her star first really began to shine.
First, we begin with a 1944 rendition of
one of her signature songs, ??Sentimental
Journey,? with the big band that really
vaulted her into the stratosphere, The
Les Brown Orchestra. Then we double
back all the way to her very first radio
performances with local Cincinnati
bandleader Barney Rapp, who was the man who urged Doris Mary Anne
Kappelhoff to change her name to Doris Day. After that, we??re off and running with
more mid-??40s appearances with Les Brown, 1950 duets on
The Bob Hope Show
with
Bob (??Sunshine Cake?) and Jimmy Wakely (??Slippin?? Around?), and a lot more songs
from
The Bob Hope Show
that reunited Doris with Les Brown, who served as the
show??s musical director. We??ve found period pictures galore for the package??which,
by the way, was put together with the full knowledge and consent of the late, great
lady herself??and have commissioned liner notes by Joe Marchese that chart the
steep trajectory of Doris Day??s career through these radio recordings. Remastered,
like our other Doris Day rarities collections, by Mike Milchner at SonicVision...a
perfect way to celebrate the Doris Day centennial. - .. FROM THE RADIO 1939-1950Much of the material in this set are unreleased recordings from radio transcriptions with tracks 2-3 from her first radio broadcast in 1939 from NBC station WLW in Cincinnati with the Barney Rapp orchestra, 4 from the MGM series "The Lion's Roar" in 1943 also on WLW, track 5's 1944 performance is from an unknown radio broadcast, 7-10 from AFRS "One Night Stand" broadcasts from 1943 and tracks 11-22 from NBC's "The Bob Hope Show" broadcasts between 1948-1950. Tracks 1 & 6 are from previously unreleased V-Discs. Track 24 is a fragment from Doris Day's audition for radio station WLW in 1942, according to the notes in the booklet. |
