Rosemary Clooney was an American singer and actress. She came to prominence in the early 1950s with the song "Come On-a My House," which was followed by other pop numbers. She also had success as a jazz vocalist. Clooney's career languished in the 1960s, partly because of problems related to depression and drug addiction, but revived in 1977, when her White Christmas co-star Bing Crosby asked her to appear with him at a show marking his 50th anniversary in show business. She continued recording until her death in 2002. This album was released in 1984 on the Concord Jazz label. Most of the album features Clooney singing with a small swing group directed by pianist John Oddo, though Clooney performs two of the selections ("Be Careful, It's My Heart" and "What'll I Do") as duets with guitarist Ed Bickert. The album is notable for the presence of Kansas City jazz drummer Gus Johnson in the rhythm section. Johnson played with the Count Basie Orchestra and the Jay McShann Orchestra, and replaced Clooney's regular drummer. This record and its sleeve are in Very Good Plus condition.
