It's A Rainy Day
Phil Moore and The Orchestra
Golden Tone Hi-Fideltiy C 4032
From the back cover: Her (Horne) versatility goes beyond the confines of vocal achievement. She has conquered all facets of show-business to become one of the few artists to excel in all media. Since her screen debut in "Panama Hattie," she has scored one box-office movie hit after another for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. As this album will evidence, she is among the foremost recording artists in the world today.
Her name is magic on the marquees of nightclubs, throughout the land. Time and time again she plays to turn away crowds – clubs booked to sell-out proportions long before she arrives in town – from Los Angeles Cocoanut Grove to New York's Copacabana. She has won acclaim in her television appearances, and, more recently, returned to Broadway where she got her start, to open as the star of the hit musical, "Jamaica."
She is accompanied in this album by Pianist - Composure - Arranger - Conductor Phil Moore, one of the great musicians of our time, as he conducts a set of lush orchestral arrangements designed to set off her dazzling artistry. He wrote "It's A Rainy Day" specially for her to sing in this album.
