I was at a dinner show watching her sing in Houston around 1980 & as she came out for the 2nd set stopped & asked me if I was staying for it & I said I was waiting for her to sing she did so well, That's All. So she sang it for me & it was awesome.

This was a great LP and should be reissued on CD. Are you listening Sony? Joanie is the perennial breath of fresh air. She can sing anything ... I've been a fan since the 60s. Her most recent work seems to be available only on Japanese CDs but they can be purchased from Japanese dealers. Joanie, you are wonderful!

Love this version, adore Joanie, and Sergio Mendes and Brasil '66 do a great uptempo version of this song.

I used to listen to her when i was just a toddler in my country. Had i been born here i would have given everything for an opportunity to kiss her magical soul. She is awesome!

I'm with you ortfan and xavier. The releases are long past due as are additional performances and recordings by Miss Sommers who I have followed off and on since the early 1960s.

perfect!

Could you possibly post "A Wonderful Day Like Today" or "You'd Better Love Me"? I love Joanie so much!

I was able to get a cd with 2 albums by Joanie Sommers from Amazon. One LP was "Positively The Most"and the other was "Softly, The Brazilian Sound".

Amazon also now has a fair amount of Joanie's music available via mp3 download, which was unavailable until recently.
