Synopsis

Album Description

Given her first major label deal at the age of eighteen by Mitch Miller, vocalist Jill Corey recorded a total of twenty seven singles for Columbia. She was also an actress, with credits including "The Tonight Show," "The Dave Garroway Show" and "Your Hit Parade." In addition, she played the female lead in "Senior Prom," a 1959 Columbia movie musical which featured Louis Prima & Keely Smith's debut of "That Old Black Magic" and listed Moe Howard (of the Three Stooges) as associate producer. This reissue of her classic 1958 Columbia album includes six bonus tracks, all of which were originally released as singles.

CD Reviews

A SPLENDID LOOK BACK AT JILL COREY'S UNIQUE TALENT!

A. POLLOCK | PLYMOUTH, DEVON United Kingdom | 12/22/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"During the `50's many new promising perky bright-voiced female singers appeared, and following the demise of the big-bands, were able to learn their craft by appearing on television, only to lose both pace and race when rock `n roll became the ruling factor. Jill Corey was certainly one who shone brightly, with proof clearly evident on this delightful collection which puts its spotlight on an album originally released by Columbia in 1958. Ironically, the focus falls initially on songs written in the Twenties and Thirties, and nicely packaged with punchy orchestral arrangements by Glenn Osser, so I DOUBLE DARE YOU, AIN'T WE GOT FUN and BYE BYE BLUES emphasise the fun side of the set. With Osser's string section in place, HE WAS TOO GOOD FOR ME, BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME and IN LOVE IN VAIN slow the pace for contrasting heartbreakers from a wider time-span and they really display Jill's considerable emotional range in ballad mode. Six welcome bonus tracks, originally singles, include EXACTLY LIKE YOU and HAVE YOU EVER BEEN LONELY? which contain some soft-rock arrangements. The extensive notes indicate that Jill continues to occasionally sing."
