The Kay Starr Style is a studio album by Kay Starr. It was released in 1953 by Capitol Records (catalog no. H-363).[2] The album included Starr's No. 3 pop hit, "Side by Side". Originally issued as a 10-inch LP with eight songs, it was reissued in 1955 as a 12-inch album with four additional tracks.[3]

Upon its release, Billboard magazine wrote: "[O]n this bright and lively waxing the lusty, saucy Kay shows how she can inject new life and new meaning into a group of standards. The songs range from torchy ballads to rollicking novelties, and on all of them the thrush is home from the moment she rips into the first four bars. The wonderful work by Harold Mooney adds much to the platter."[4]

AllMusic later gave the album a rating of two stars.[1]
