O'Day reunited with star arranger Billy May for their second songbook set. A rip-roaring version of "Johnny One Note" starts things off but this is actually more subdued than the title suggests (which is actually a good thing), with O'Day paying attention to the lyrics and May alternating big band swing with lush orchestral ballads that fit O'Day like an evening gown.
