This 1959 recording comes from the Frank DeVol era in Doris’ career. Assigned by Mitch Miller of Columbia Records, Frank was a prolific composer of movie soundtracks in the late Fifties and early Sixties, and a fine arranger. He also acted. In 1961's short-lived – now cult – TV series “I’m Dickens, He’s Fenster” on ABC, Frank played Mr. Bannister, the building contractor who never cracked a smile no matter how hilarious his lines.
Doris never got the credit she deserved for being a song stylist. She had a wonderful voice and could do many of the things that Frank and Ella could do with a song. She sounds better than ever in this number.
