I too and so sorry to hear of his passing!
What can one say. We're here for such a short time! The world is lucky to still have Doris healthy and somewhat interacting with her fan clubs and friends. Since I'm over 50 now, I thank the Universe for every day I have.

Doris Day's Best Friends release.
It seems to me that we ALL want these shows released in a CD set compilation. I think Jim Pierson of Tuluca Lake, who released everything TV on D to date wants to do this too, but....... So let's start a campaign to do this. I'm planting the seed and let's find out who and where we need to email our...

Burt Bacharach and Doris....what a coincidence!
Jack Nitzsche said in an interview that Burt B and Hal D had written the song for "Send Me No Flowers". Burt B found out that Terry Melcher was using Jack for the arrangement and sent Jack a note asking that he make it sound like the girl group of the time (Crystals I think). Doris was interested ve...

My take on Caprice
This is my take on this film. It's the same thing I wrote for my Amazon review. 19 of 21 people found the following review helpful: Awesome MOD Doris Day!, December 12, 2006 One thing you will notice with this very lush production is just that. IT's LUSH! Alot of money went into producing this film ...

Let The Little Girl Limbo--leftovers.....
As an afterthought, it should be noted that since Limbo was never released, Terry used the same music tracks and had Anita Bryant record it! There is a record of that session, however I cannot find it being released either. Anyone know?

Poof! She's gone.....
Well, Lauren, I think the fast version of Limbo would have been gr8 for the dance sequence....but then, I'm partial to it. I think the sickeningly sweet song for me for D would have to be.....are you ready?....... Daffa Down Dilly! That's one fast song, apparently there was a faster version of it, i...

Doris, Terry Melcher, Jack Nitzsche and a new sound 4 Franki
Frankie Laine's last big hit record was "Don't Make My Baby Blue". A Cynthia Weil/Barry Mann tune. This was in 1963 or 64 I think, when Terry was saving all those Columbia artists of the 30's, 40's, and 50's including his mom. Frankie said that this song, and two others "Take Her", and another one l...

Doris Day's Rock Sound of the sixties....
Doris Day's new sound was ushered in with Barry Mann and his wife, Cynthia Weil's "Let The Little Girl Limbo". Terry Melcher, Doris' son realized that he had to do something with his mom and the other Columbia powerhouse singers of the 40's and 50's or it was over for them. So he hired Jack Nitzsche...

Awesome gown.
Rivals the orange sequence in "Do Not Disturb"! All of her clothes in the series were off the rack Doris said. Connie Edney would go shopping and bring in the stuff on Thursday's or Fridays. Most all of the costumes came from Joseph Magnum according to D and she just loved that store. So I guess the...

Thanks so much for this info.
So Sad for Doris. She's outlived most of her family and colleages and friends.
I'm so glad that D is well and doing gr8, anyway at last report.

Great fun!
I noticed that she was going to be in it reading the theaters info last fall.
I travel there frequently to the Cochella valley. I love it there.
Very interesting she lives in Desi's home in RM. I understand that Bob Hope left his fabulous hillside historic home to the Catholic church?!
