Doris Day was one of the most universally popular entertainers of the post-war era on both screen and record, her stunning good looks and vivacious personality matched by an ability to handle pop songs across the spectrum of the genre, and her talents ensured she had regular chart entries across more than two decades. This great-value 79-track 3-CD set comprises just about all her entries in the Billboard and Cash Box Top 100 charts and in the UK charts through to 1962 and in the UK charts, starting with her hits as the featured vocalist with Les Brown's Orchestra in 1945, followed by her solo hits and a number of hits performing duets with other top singes of the era like Buddy Clark, Frank Sinatra, Frankie Laine, Johnnie Ray and Donald O'Connor. Of the recordings included here, 46 were Top 20 hits, of which 25 made the Top 10, including the No. 1s "Sentimental Journey", "My Dreams Are Getting Better All the Time", "Love Somebody", "A Guy Is a Guy", "Secret Love", "Que Sera, Sera". It's not only a fabulous showcase for the talent and versatility of a much-loved artist, but it's an evocative and, dare we say it, sentimental journey through what was truly a golden era of popular music.
