Some of the material is unusual for a singer to interpret, but O'Day, one of the top jazz vocalists of the decade, improvises when the lyrics are not that strong (or barely exist). The backup by the Russ Garcia Orchestra is not all that memorable, but the focus is entirely on the vocalist, and O'Day really comes through.

Anita O'Day Sings the Winners. Anita O'Day Sings the Winners is a 1958 album by Anita O'Day. The concept of this album was to pick the "winners" from the top Jazz and Orchestral Charts. Take the "A" Train" (Billy Strayhorn, Duke Ellington) - 2:48. Tenderly" (Walter Gross, Jack Lawrence) - 2:38. A Night in Tunisia" (Dizzy Gillespie) - 2:35. Four" (Miles Davis) - 2:48. Early Autumn" (Ralph Burns, Woody Herman, Johnny Mercer) - 3:08.

Anita O'Day (born Anita Belle Colton; October 18, 1919 – November 23, 2006) was an American jazz singer widely admired for her sense of rhythm and dynamics, and her early big band appearances that shattered the traditional image of the "girl singer". Refusing to pander to any female stereotype, O'Day presented herself as a "hip" jazz musician, wearing a band jacket and skirt as opposed to an evening gown. She changed her surname from Colton to O'Day, pig Latin for "dough", slang for money.
