Dinah Shore has long been discounted as a '50s pop bore, which is terribly unfair. Part of the problem with her image is her sunny mass-market appeal and girl-next-door personna. But, in truth, she was highly regarded by all of the major singers and could swing with the best of them. Few could beat her natural charm and innocent sense of humor, especially in a duet setting. What's more, her intonation was spot on and her harmony was divine.
