(AP) Doris Day’s first album in nearly two decades, “My Heart” is set for a Dec. 2
release. The CD includes 13 previously unreleased tracks recorded over a 40-year span, including covers of Joe Cocker’s “Your Are So Beautiful,” the Lovin’ Spoonful’s “Daydream” along with many standards. All proceeds go to Day’s longtime cause,
animal welfare. A condensed version of the album was released in Britain earlier
this autumn and landed on the top 10 chart. Day turned 87 in April.
