The Greatest Interpretations Of Billie Holiday ‎(CD, Album, Comp, Mono, 24-).

Billie Holiday - альбом The best of billie holiday. Исполнитель: Billie Holiday. Поделиться с друзьями

Eleanora Fagan (April 7, 1915 – July 17, 1959), better known as Billie Holiday, was an American jazz singer with a career spanning nearly thirty years. Nicknamed "Lady Day" by her friend and music partner Lester Young, Holiday had a seminal influence on jazz music and pop singing. Her vocal style, strongly inspired by jazz instrumentalists, pioneered a new way of manipulating phrasing and tempo

Billie Holiday is widely considered one of the best jazz artists of all time. This Billie Holiday discography is ranked from best to worst, so the top Billie Holiday albums can be found at the start of the list. Lady Day's music career spanned over 25 years, despite her passing at only 44 years of age. From her start in Harlem nightclubs to command performances at Carnegie Hall, she is a jazz legend.

As for comparing it with earlier Teddy Wilson-Billie sessions, what’s the point? Count your blessings in having both. Speaking of time, Billie’s beat and variations thereon never cease to be among the seven wonders of jazz.

The best of the best was recorded between 1935 and 1937 on Vocalion and Brunswick. Again, this is the best CD of these recordings. What I like least from Billie Holiday is "Lady In Satin". It's not because of Billie Holiday but the music. Source(s): I'm a collector of original Billie Holiday records and other records of 1920s and 1930s.
