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 ( MG C-161) is the third 10 inch LP album of original material by jazz singer Billie Holiday, released on Clef Records in 1954 (her final album would also be given the same title, prior to being changed to Last Recording instead). The recordings took place in 1952 and 1954. Holiday never entered the recording studio in 1953.

Pianist John Hicks only actually saw Billie Holiday perform once but was enthusiastic about recording this Lady Day tribute. His renditions of ballads and blues (with only "What a Little Moonlight Can Do" being faster than a medium-tempo pace) are tasteful, relaxed, melodic and somewhat predictable. The music (which also features bassist Ray Drummond and drummer Victor Lewis) is consistently excellent but rarely rises above the level of superior background music, lacking the emotional intensity that Holiday could give these songs
