DORIS DAY: MUSIC, MOVIES & MEMORIES

For seven decades, the Grammy-winning and Oscar-nominated artist Doris Day has epitomized performing excellence, setting the standard for countless female singers and actors who have attempted to follow in her path. But no other female performer has ever really come close to the level of artistry, success and worldwide devotion that the woman born Doris Mary Anne Kappelhoff in Cincinnati, Ohio, has enjoyed ever since becoming a teen-aged songbird with the Les Brown Orchestra during the World War II era. She truly will forever be the ultimate “crossover” superstar.
Although Doris departed her showbiz career over two decades ago to devote her full energies to the Doris Day Animal Foundation, the public’s love for her music has never flagged, and now Real Gone Music is proud to present a pair of new releases to celebrate Ms. Day’s momentous 90th birthday (April 3, 2014).

DORIS DAY: Music, Movies & Memories
Here’s the perfect birthday present for Doris Day fans: a brand-new album of Day rarities spanning the 1940s through 1980s, offering tracks that have never appeared on an album or compact disc as well as several precious, recently-discovered gems. Among the previously unreleased titles are a 1947 rendition of the standard “Can’t Help Lovin’ That Man,” a beautiful ballad from the ‘50s entitled “How Well I Know,” and five tracks from Doris’ final recording session in 1985 including an amazing, jazz-flavored outtake performance of “Everyone’s Gone to the Moon.” Also featured is Doris’last-ever film song, “Soft as the Starlight” (from 1966’s The Glass Bottom Boat) in stereo, plus a duo of soundtrack selections from her musical Young at Heart, an unreleased alternate version of her signature 1956 million-selling smash “Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be)” and three performances from Doris’ 1970s CBS-TV variety specials, featuring superb interpretations of “The Way We Were,” “The Gypsy in My Soul” and a medley that closes with “The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin’ Groovy).” To cap things off, Doris reflects on her multi-faceted talents in a special promotional radio interview from the 1960s, retrieved from her personal archive.
