- Doris on the radio, a nice addition to my CD library

Doris Day had a radio program in the early 1950s, and this is one complete show from the program, from the opening introduction to the close. (If this was not a sustaining program, they've removed the commercials; otherwise it sounds complete.) They have put track markers on the CD, so you can get to each song, but if you just put it on and start it, you will not hear any pauses at the track boundaries, so that they have been placed arbitrarily. (I think this is one thing that was not done right; when she does 2 songs with a little bit of dialog between them, the track boundary is in the middle of the dialog. I would have put two track boundaries in, one at the end of one song and one at the beginning of the next. But this is a minor quibble.)

The songs are almost entirely ones she has recorded either on albums or as singles (or both) -- and with fairly similar arrangements. I would have preferred that they picked a day when she might have sung some songs that were not on her records, but for all I know this might not have been possible.

The most negative thing I have to say is the skimpiness of the liner notes. They are mostly a short biography of Doris Day with well known facts, while I would have wanted more information about the radio show, particularly the date of the broadcast and things such as whose orchestra was backing her. None of this was provided.

Still, Doris Day's voice is beautiful, and none of these negative comments can particularly cut the rating below a 4-star count. I'm not sorry I bought it.
