Review & Description
This is Grammy-winning singing legend Doris Day's first studio album with fresh material in 17 years; 13 songs of a timeless quality including 10 previously unreleased recordings produced by Day's late son, Terry Melcher, plus a trio of Day classics.
Doris Day has been fully involved with the musical selections for this special album, which hit the top ten with its advance release in England. Her son Terry Melcher -- who was known as a producer for folk-rock pioneers The Byrds and other artists -- co-wrote three of the new songs with the Beach Boys' Bruce Johnston: the emotional title track My Heart, the romantic The Way I Dreamed It and the haunting Happy Endings sung by Melcher with a newly recorded spoken-word introduction by Day.
Also included is the rhythmic radio single Heaven Tonight plus three classic rock-era favorites: Joe Cocker's ballad You Are So Beautiful, the Lovin' Spoonful's joyful 1966 hit Daydream and The Beach Boys' nostalgic Disney Girls, the latter written by Bruce Johnston, who co-produced three of the recordings on the album.
Exclusive to this U.S. edition is the debut release of the traditional folk ballad Stewball, which appropriately connects with Day's devotion to animals. The trio of vintage classics Day has selected for this album are My One & Only Love with the Andre Previn Trio, the biographical Ohio from the stage musical Wonderful Town and the standard My Buddy from Day's film I'll See You In My Dreams. Rounding out the set is the bouncy showtune Hurry It's Lovely Up Here from On A Clear Day You Can See Forever.
