Before I did what I did, we didn't have a place in rock 'n' roll. Not really. I was the first to be taken
seriously as a female rock 'n' roll musician and singer. That hadn't
been done before. I played the boys at their own game. For everybody
that came afterward, it was a little bit easier, which is good. I'm
proud of that. If I have a legacy, that's what it is. It's nothing I
take lightly. It was gonna happen sooner or later. I have
done my job more than 50 years.

Tribute to Doris Day
Doris gained a vocal education by listening to the radio, becoming a fan of the embryonic records of upcoming Ella Fitzgerald. Her mother encouraged her to take singing lessons. Alma took Doris to see vocal coach Grace Raine, who was so impressed with Doris' natural talent that she offered her three lessons for the price of one. Doris credits Raine with impressing upon her the importance of delivering a lyric, and today Doris says that Raine had the greatest impact on her singing career.
Hope you enjoy walking to class to the great Doris Day
