MOG Editorial Review

Backed by the Oscar Peterson Quartet, Anita Sings the Most shows exactly what made her one of the greatest female jazz singers of all time, especially her joyously subtle tone changes to a stunningly uptempo sound. On songs like "Them There Eyes," for instance, manages to sing at break-neck pace without ruining the smoothness of her vocals, and "'S Wonderful/They Can't Take That Away From Me" constantly shifts with O'Day's vocals effortlessly moving from rapid-fire to slowly seductive. Despite her unconventional style, though, the album's straightforward closer, "Bewitched Bothered and Bewildered," proves to be not only a standout, but evidence of her amazing pipes at the most basic level too.
AMG Review of Anita Sings the Most

All Music Guide

Anita O'Day recorded many rewarding albums in the 1950s when her voice was at its strongest, and this collaboration with the Oscar Peterson Quartet (comprised of pianist Peterson, guitarist Herb Ellis, bassist Ray Brown, and drummer John Poole) may very well be her best. Not only is the backup swinging, giving a Jazz at the Philharmonic feel to some of the songs, but O'Day proves that she could keep up with Peterson. "Them There Eyes" is taken successfully at a ridiculously fast tempo, yet the singer displays a great deal of warmth on such ballads as "We'll Be Together Again" and "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered." While Peterson and Ellis have some solos, O'Day is never overshadowed (which is saying a lot) and is clearly inspired by their presence. The very brief playing time (just 33 minutes) is unfortunate on this straight CD reissue of the original LP, but the high quality definitely makes up for the lack of quantity. A gem.
