Having worked hundred's of vocals with bad time, it was a delight to work wih Anita, if only briefly toward the end of her career. Incredible swing and phrasing.
-
In her scrapbook there's a handwritten letter from Andy Razaf who wrote this song, he's thanking her for doing it.
He says his friends have heard her sing it and told him "they have never heard anyone equal your rendition of it." :)

She was a f**kin knockout! Please, please, check out her version of this in Tokyo '63.
It is an absolute STUNNER! ..... in fact the whole DVD of her in Tokyo is just great.

@6153calme ALL the ladies brought something "special / different" to their vocals . . . and what do we have today? Not much.
-
Fabulous!! As noted by waynebrasler, this Lady knew how to dress . . . use facial expressions, etc. Just watched her life story on the Bio Channel three days ago . . . what a talent, what a life, what a vocalist.

Note the stage presence. She was a great jazz singer of historic proportions but she also knew how to dress, how to walk on a stage and how to exit, how to stand, how to move and to use facial expression. Her wardrobe was always remarkable--she sometime looked like a girl who was reading Vogue and Sartre at the same time. She was basically uneducated but knew all there was to know about life, about music and to how to present herself as a consummate artist and entertainer.

You are so right; many performers today could learn from her stage presence...although it was her manager Joe Glaser who reportedly said "she has a million bucks worth of talent but no class"

Most of her Verve albums, if not all, are available separately.They shouldn't be too hard to find.

Thanks so very much for posting this sensational clip of Anita O'Day. I am such a big fan of this legendary lady! It's a shame that there's not more of her available on video so it's a real treat to be able to see her in her prime singing one of her signature songs. Thanks again.
