This CD contains a treasure trove of ‘Doris Day’ A&B side singles which were released by Columbia Records (USA) during the 1960s. This standout project ignores those singles that originate from Doris’s original studio albums and focuses solely on those songs that are unique to the single format. Thus, what you get is an assortment of very colourful recordings that are difficult to obtain on CD (unless of course you splash out on the extravagant Bear Family boxset of this era)!

This super collections closes with two wonderful tunes by hit song-makers Barry Mann and Cynthia Weill, who were responsible for songs like “Saturday Night At The Movies” (The Drifters), “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling” (The Righteous Brothers) and “Make Your Own Kind Of Music” (Mama Cass Elliott). Both of these tracks were intended as potential “pop” singles for Doris but never got released!
