Background

Marilyn Maye had been recording for RCA Victor since 1965 after being discovered by television host Steve Allen. She put out several albums with the label beginning with Meet Marvelous Marilyn Maye.[2] On her debut album, Maye recorded the song "I Love You Today", which Steve Allen had written for a musical. This gave Maye's producer (Joe René) the idea to have her record songs that would be featured in upcoming Broadway musicals. Among these was the song "Cabaret", which became commercially successful.[3] The song was featured in her fourth RCA album A Taste of "Sherry!".[4]

However, the technical procedures used to record there classified A Taste of "Sherry! a studio album. The entirety of the project was produced by Joe René. It featured arrangement by Sid Bass, Claus Ogerman, Marty Manning, Jimmy Wisner and liner notes by Gene Lees[4]

A Taste of "Sherry!" consisted of 11 tracks.[5] Its title track would later appear in the Broadway musical of the same name. "Cabaret" would also appear in the Broadway musical of the same name. "Long Ago" was featured in the Broadway show Half a Sixpence.[4] Also included are covers of songs that had originally made America's Billboard pop chart: Sidney Bechet's 1956 top five recording of "Petite Fleur (A Time to Love a Time to Cry)" and The Righteous Brothers's 1964 chart-topping "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'". "Try to Remember" was a Broadway musical song that had also been a Billboard success by Ed Ames during this period.[6]

They also added, "She's a hard-sell singer who makes every performance pay off".[1] Cashbox magazine commented that Maye's pop covers demonstrated her "smooth artistry" and concluded, "The artist sings effortlessly with warmth and conviction, and the set is likely to garner much critical acclaim."[8] Record World magazine found that Maye's vocal delivery on the album to be both "smooth" and "sweet".[9]
