Why Don't You Do Right? / Bubble-Loo, Bubble-Loo

Album Notes & Community Reviews

Revisiting the blues standard that launched her career during her tenure with Benny Goodman, this solo recording features a remarkably sultry, restrained vocal delivery. The singer eschews the aggressive projection common in big band vocalists, relying instead on subtle phrasing and a deep, simmering swing feel. The release solidified her transition into a dominant, independent voice in the post-war pop and jazz markets.
