ALL AUTHORS
If you're reading this, then you might be interested in Nellie McKay's NYT book review of "Considering Doris Day" by Tom Santopietro and her review of the Sinatra boxset (4 cd/1 dvd), "Vegas".
As for Miss McKay's records, I say get them all! Her first two are titled "Get Away From Me" and "Pretty Little Head", respectively. The third release is the Jim Dandy recommended "Obligatory Villagers". The latest, "Normal As Blueberry Pie" is also available on vinyl! What-the-what?
Now, go on, get out of here and buy this for someone you love or like *a lot* for X'mas.
