Gathris

This release was designed to commemorate Day's 75th birthday (as of this writing she's still kicking) and is the first 2-cd overview of her entire recording career. You may have a preference for her earlier, big band pop or her later film music; this compilation showcases both very well. Even though I love Doris Day's perfect pop soprano and like much of this music it is mostly located in a faded pop culture era, and sometimes unconvincing. A lot of the film songs and show tunes fare the worst, while the earlier pop - and even something approaching jazz - still sounds good. Day was an exceptionally talented communicator and a technically very good singer, so she was able to make the best of what was offered. None of this music can seriously be considered "classic" - it's lightweight commercial, never intended for a long shelf life. But a lot of this is also pleasant (although not all at once), and the remastered sound quality on this release is excellent, so if you like it both wholesome and perky this is the motherlode.

Nothing personal

I don't agree with segregating this music to being from a faded era and never intended to have a long shelf life. It's all a matter of taste. Would you say Billie Holiday is in the same category?
