Out this week is a new documentary called "Anita O'Day: Life of a Jazz Singer". The above is the trailer. The "New York Times" gives it a terrific review: here.
I always liked Anita. She swings like no other white lady I've ever heard before! I had no idea she was on heroin for 15 years, had several marriages, and was arrested numerous times on drug charges. You don't see that boring bitch Diana Krall leading such a colorful life [must be why she's impossibly dull!].
Here's to you Anita! I'm putting your CDs on right now...
