Doris Day
In 2011 Legendary Hollywood singer and actress Doris Day returns with her first studio album of new material in 17 years. An exciting collection featuring nine brand-new recordings produced by Day’s late son, Terry Melcher, plus a trio of Day classics. Ms. Day has been fully involved with the musical selections for this special release. Her son Terry Melcher – who was known as a songwriter and producer for folk-rock pioneers The Byrds (“Mr. Tambourine Man”) and other artists – co-wrote four of the new songs with Beach Boys member Bruce Johnston: the emotional title track ‘My Heart,’ the romantic ‘The Way I Dreamed It,’ the haunting ‘Happy Endings’ – sung by Melcher with a newly recorded spoken-word introduction by Day for her fans – and the catchy new Doris Day single release ‘Heaven Tonight.‘ Ms. Day says that she’s delighted her music has withstood the test of time and that she still has a loyal listenership, spanning the generations. “It’s just such a thrill, and I’m honoured” she says.
