Anita O'Day?

I love her singing. Have "Incomparable"(Verve 24/96) "Finest Hour"(Verve compilation)"Live from Tokyo" and "My Ship"(Kayo). I'd like to know where I can find good quality sounding remasters or originals of some of her other records. CD or LP. Anybody else like this singer? Any suggestions of ones to get?

I have some of her recordings on LP. I would recommend "Anita Sins the Most," "Cool Heat," "anita O'Day and the Three Sounds." Also look for the DVD "Jazz on a Summer's Day"; she is one of the featured performers. You can see clips from that DVD here:

"Anita O' Day Sings the Winners", is my favorite. She is one of the greatest Jazz singers.

The Mosaic collection is amazing but out of print. Occasionally comes up on ebay.
