Reception
Initial critical response to "You're My Thrill" was quite positive. In a September 17, 1949 review of the album, Billboard wrote "This package should prove to the doubtful that Dodo righteously is one of the greats. She wraps up the eight beautiful standards in her own intimate, throaty style, setting a warm, soft-lights-and-sweet-music mood. Few singers have been able to transfer a sexy sound to wax, as Doris does."
