Doris Day Sings The Great American Songbook: A Nostalgic Yet Playful Trip Down Memory Lane
★★★☆☆
Doris Day, the eternal sweetheart of 1950s Hollywood, takes on the classic tunes of the Great American Songbook in this charming new album. With her signature velvety voice and undeniable charm, Day effortlessly glides through classics like "Cheek to Cheek" and "Fly Me to the Moon," reminding us why she became a household name in the first place.
While some may argue that Day's sound feels a bit dated in today's music scene, there's no denying the timeless appeal of songs like "What a Wonderful World" and "Moon River" when sung by a true icon like Day. Her playful delivery and impeccable phrasing bring a sense of nostalgia that is hard to resist.
That being said, there are moments on the album where Day's voice feels a bit strained, showing signs of her age. However, this only adds to the album's charm, making it feel like a cosy night in with a beloved grandparent rather than a polished studio recording.
Overall, Doris Day Sings The Great American Songbook is a delightful trip down memory lane, perfect for fans of the golden age of Hollywood and those looking for a touch of old-school glamour in their music collection. So sit back, relax, and let Doris Day whisk you away to a bygone era of glamour and sophistication.
