Billie Holiday - 1942-1951-1954 flac album

The discography of Billie Holiday consists of twelve studio albums, three live albums, twenty-four compilations, and five box sets.

Tellingly, Billie Holiday insists that even if she finds herself being battered by her male companion, she will never seek help from the police and that's a personal matter of her own. This has a grim aftertaste if you reflect upon her story up close, but Billie was not alone in taking this sort of a stand - Victoria Spivey's "Let Him Beat Me" comes to mind, and there's nothing for the listener to do but reflect upon human nature, which is what music - especially blues and jazz -. is all about
