This excellent-value 46-track 2-CD set comprises the complete content of her albums during the first five years of that era - albums “Anita O'Day Collates”, “Songs By Anita O'Day”, “An Evening With Anita O'Day”, “Anita” and “Pick Yourself Up”, (some titles appear on more than one LP) plus tracks from singles. On those albums she is accompanied variously by the orchestras of Ralph Burns, Roy Kral, Larry Russell and Buddy Bregman, with musicians on the sessions including Barney Kessel, Roy Eldridge, Stan Getz, Shelly Manne, Budd Johnson, Andy Secrest, Jimmy Giuffre, Paul Smith and many more. It’s a snapshot of a key era in her career, and a fine showcase for her unique talent working across a range of musical environments.
