In another experiment, producer Creed Taylor teams O'Day with the alternately Latin and bop-grounded quartet of vibraphonist Cal Tjader -- and he gets some amazing performances from this team. O'Day sounds as if she is delighted with Tjader's polished Afro-Cuban grooves, gliding easily over the rhythms, toying with the tunes, transforming even a tune so locked into its trite time as &Mr. Sandman& into a stimulating excursion. Indeed, O'Day's freewheeling phrasing becomes downright sexy on &That's Your Red Wagon& and Dave Frishberg's delicious parody of a spoiled honeybunch, &Peel Me a Grape.& Also, thanks to Taylor's obsession with good engineering and tasteful applications of reverb, O'Day's voice sounds much fuller and more attractive in his productions than on her Norman Granz-produced albums.
