Music reviews of Love Album
Music Review: AN ALBUM TO "LOVE"
Rating: 5 Stars
The first domestic release of this album, recorded by Miss Day in 1967, right before she commenced production on the 1968 MGM comedy, "Where Were You When the Lights Went Out?" is cause for celebration. Intended as the beginning of a new phase of her recording career after decades of recording for Columbia where she was, for a while, their top-selling female artist, it is a collection that truly befits its title as "The Love Album".
Romantic, dreamy, tender, special and those are barely a handful of adjectives that could be used to describe this exquisite collection given the special Doris Day touch.
She reportedly selected the titles herself and they represent a most interesting spectrum of songs from the 1920's through the 50's and 60's.
In today's music world and actually for the past decade or two, much of the human quality of a voice has been lost in an array of engineering tricks used to enhance or disguise vocal flaws in singers. Yes, sometimes you can be impressed and/or dazzled but what has been lost in too many instances is the real beauty of the voice. There is not any of that on "The Love Album". Close your eyes while listening to Miss Day sing and listen to her legendary phrasing, diction, brilliant control and expression when imparting a lyric. It is dazzling and the intimacy she brings to these songs will make you believe she is sitting there singing only to you.
The songs include a superlative "For All We Know", "Are You Lonesome Tonight" and "Sleep Lagoon" among others. Miss Day's take on "Life is Just a Bowl of Cherries" is worlds away from the usual faster-paced version and she turns it into a romantic gem with her interpretation. Other lesser known titles such as "Snuggled on Your Shoulder" and "All Alone" are given similar treatments and the medley of "If I Had My Life to Live Over" and "Let me Call You Sweetheart" is similar in arrangement to the duet Miss Day and Perry Como would do several years later of the same tunes on her blockbuster 1971 CBS Musical Special. Speaking of that special, three of the songs sung by Miss Day on that special are included in this collection.
Her rendition of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" clearly indicates her affinity for more modern music and the realization that had she chosen to continue recording in the 1970's, she'd have had a very successful career. The other two songs from that special are two new versions of classic Day hits - "Sentimental Journey" and "It's Magic" from her first film. The recordings prove that Miss Day's "pipes" as Variety noted at the time, retained all of their quality.
"The Love Album" is a must have for lovers of great music sung by a great artist.
