The album captures Day's transition from big band vocalist to a rising solo star, highlighting her clear, emotive voice in standards and pop tunes that defined the post-World War II era. Historically significant as one of the first major compilations of her pre-Hollywood recordings, it preserves rare and previously scattered singles from her formative years, contributing to her legacy as one of the top-selling female artists of the 20th century with over 100 chart hits. Notable tracks include the era-defining hit single Sentimental Journey from 1945, which became a massive success and symbolized the sentimental mood of returning soldiers, as well as other early favorites like It's Magic from the 1947 film Romance on the High Seas. The album underscores Day's enduring popularity.
