Biography

Anita O'Day, American jazz singer, was born in 1919. She pushed the envelope, wearing coats and skirts instead of evening gowns, becoming a hip female musician.

She was born Anita Belle Colton, and renamed herself O'Day, pig latin for "dough" or money. She also earned the nickname "The Jezebel of Jazz" due to her ongoing problems with heroin and alcohol addiction and erratic behavior.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fellas she can't get...Are fella's she ain't met...., June 8, 2000
This review is from: Pick Yourself Up (Audio CD)
This is my all time favorite Anita O'day Album. Anita O'day is five steps beyond amazing. Her vocal style can't be beat. Every song she sings gets the special O'day treatment and is forever more her own. The track listing of this album is just chocked full of winners! My favorite is Anita's rendition of 'Stars Fell On Alabama'. Its beautiful and moving. You can just feel the magic of the moment she is describing. Other super hits include the slinky 'Sweet Georgia Brown', the peppy 'Pick Yourself Up' and the bittersweet 'There's A Lull In My Life'. Also, this Cd gives you alternative takes on songs and the rockin bonus tracks 'Getaway and The Chase' and the classic 'Rock and Roll Waltz'. This is one of the records I play when I want to get into a good mood. It always makes me smile. Bottom line, Its a FANTASTIC album at a SUPER price. Don't miss it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Eureka!, December 9, 2001
By 
This review is from: Pick Yourself Up (Audio CD)
It's a solid gas (if you can imagine such a state) to bump into this album again! I owned it on vinyl when it came out around 1960, and lost it to a jazz drummer on Mountain Drive in Santa Barbara. He also copped my girl friend, but that's another story. I almost played the grooves off that platter while I had it, and can pretty much remember the whole thing still. Very glad to find it again, and to recommend it to you.

5.0 out of 5 stars An absolute must have for any serious jazz collector..., March 1, 2000
This review is from: Pick Yourself Up (Audio CD)
Anita O'Day is one of the greatest jazz singers to emerge from the 40's, and was and is the best bebop singer from the 50's till present. This re-issue of the lp PICK YOUSELF UP WITH ANITA is one of her best lp's and is highly reccomended as are all of her verves. HIGHLY RECOMENDED.

Also see Anita O'DAy live next time you're in Los Angeles, she often performs at the Atlas, the Chaya Brassarie, and The Grape Vine.
