Man, her facial expressions and hand gestures add a whole level of cool to her performance. Genius.

things to ponder: what do you mean by GOODS? GOODS as MERCHANDISE? so your a MERCHANDISE PERSONAL MESSENGER. also, who or what is HARRY CUNT? HARRY'S CUNT or HAIRY CUNT? the former is not possible for MALES DON'T HAVE CUNT or maybe HARRY IS A FEMALE (never heard of a female named HARRY). the latter would make more sense. Furthermore, try to know correct word spellings such as: GODDAMN, CUM-DRENCHED, VORAREPHILIAC, DICKWADS, and HERPES-RIDDEN. is HERPES the only disease you know?

I think she's lip synching to a recording.

That's the real thing. Anita would sooner do cartwheels on stage than lip sync!
Do check out the now documentary on her it's very good.

Yes. It's out (in the US) as Anita O'Day Live in Tokyo 1963. I belive Anita's former manager puts it out!

I saw her at Bach dancing and Dynamite on the west coast near Half Moon Bay..(montera) and well, she was older, but the thing was she was such a controller...stopping the piano player, etc. It's part of her nature. Extremely bossy. It did not wear very well. Note how she tries to control the time at the beginning of this.

Her singular vision led to her creativity, not too many Big Band "girl singers" made a successful transition into jazz.
On the idea of how she aged, it beat the alternative. There's a reason her bio was called High Times Hard Times. A lot of folks who shared Anita's level of high times didn't age at all.
