“Marilyn Maye takes a stage like Grant took Richmond. The great cabaret singer doesn't just reach out to an audience - she overwhelms it with song, but in the hippest, most swinging way imaginable.”
Will Friedwald, The New York Sun

Special liner notes by composer Jerry Herman:

In all the productions of my “Hello Dolly”, Horace Vandergelder of Yonkers, New York, has always sung the song and made the statement “It Takes A Woman”. Until I heard this album, I never realized that it does take a woman with tremendous musical capabilities to sing the entire score of “Hello, Dolly”. Yes, it takes a woman with great versatility and vocal range to perform the varied material and remain true to her style. And that woman is Marilyn Maye.

Let's take, for example, the gentle bossa nova rendition of “Ribbons Down My Back”. Here is Marilyn’s ability to deliver a song with full emotion and very little instrumental accompaniment. Marilyn's jazz roots surface in her interpretation of “Dancing”. Just try to keep you feet still... And, of course, the title tune is no stranger to Marilyn. She recorded it on one of her RCA albums and has performed it on stage many times.

And so...it does take a woman. an exceptional woman like Marilyn Maye. I’m proud to know such an extraordinary combination of singing and acting talent has portrayed my “Dolly” on stage and on this album.
