Pearl Bailey's fantastic success on Broadway is without precedent. Never before has a star added so much new excitement to an already proven hit as Pearl Bailey did when she took over the title role in Hello Dolly! A special new Tony Award was created to give recognition to her achievement. For Pearl Bailey this is the climax of 25 years of experience in all facets of show business - night clubs, vaudeville,, television films, dance bands and theatre. Pearl Bailey is a real trouper in the old show business sense. She's done everything and she's learned from everything she's done. Here - in one fascinating album - is a summary of all the things that have gone into making Pearl Bailey a great star. Here are her songs with a great comic twist, songs of great meaning, songs she did on Broadway and in Vaudeville, songs she has just discovered and the very first song that she ever sang on a stage. This is Pearl Bailey as she really is - warm, witty, a philosopher, a sentimentalist, a realist and one of the most distinctive singers who has ever lived.
