Sings The Winners

This 1958 album sees O’Day cherry-pick from jazz chart-toppers, allowing the versatile singer to reinterpret compositions by the likes of Miles Davis and Dizzy Gillespie while backed by a few different bands. She proves right at home against the lively plushness of Duke Ellington’s “Take the ‘A’ Train,” embraces swing in a big way on “Sing, Sing, Sing,” and evokes the slow-burn earthiness of Billie Holiday on “Body and Soul.” The playful bonus tracks include the appropriately sweet scat showcase “Hershey Bar.”
