I bought this for a friend for Christmas, not having heard it before ... after I heard it I had to go out and get a copy for myself. Day's beautifully honey'd tone, Previn's exceptionally accomplished jazz accompaniment, the inspired choice of songs - all adds up to a wonderful whole. Turn the lights down, take the phone off the hook, pour yourself a drink and sit back and relax to this mellow, soulful CD. Definitely worth the price.

Although do check out the special edition with extra tracks - worth it for the last track alone.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Gem of a recording 6 Feb 2003
Format:Audio CD
Occasionally you stumble over a gem of a recording, and when you do you can't beleive your luck. I have to be honest, Doris Day was someone I never rated very highly, until now. Any artist that can sing straight into the microphone with just piano, bass and drums for accompaniment, and pull it off has got to be very good and this is exactly what Doris Day does on this album. The accompaniment by Andre Previn is, of course, an enourmous reason why the album succeeds. They go together like port and stilton.

This album was recorded 42 years ago, yet it still remains fresh. That goes to prove the maxim that good music, no matter what style or genre, lasts and continues to appreciated by different generations. I wasn't even a twinkle in my parents eyes when this was recorded. In fact they hadn't even met!!

If you enjoy listening to songs sung with passion and feeling, then buy this album and you will not be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars wow 18 Nov 2000
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
This album represents what could have been for Doris Day: on it, she sings and swings like the greatest jazz star on the planet. Forget the icky, maudlin show tunes and brassy kitsch (although "Control Yourself" comes close); this album is worth buying for the tracks "Close Your Eyes" and a heart-stopping rendition of "Nobody's Heart" alone. Doris recorded nothing else like "Duet" in her career, so discover this gem for yourself.

4.0 out of 5 stars Doris Day with the Andre Previn Trio
This CD transfer dates from a 1961 recording. Although only Previn and DD are billed, it actually involves the Previn Trio with Red Mitchell on bass and Frank Capp on drums. Read more
