God Bless The Child is a 14-cut compilation of the singer's studio work for Columbia Records from 1935 to 1942, when she was 20 to 27. Her voice is bright and smiling and the arrangements (most played by Teddy Wilson and his orchestra) are perky and swinging. Even "My Man, which later became one of her most anguished signature songs, appears at an optimistic mid-tempo. Personnel: Billie Holiday: voice; Roy Eldridge: trumpet; Ernie Powell: clarinet, tenor saxophone; Eddie Heywood: piano; Paul Chapman: guitar; Grachan Moncur: bass; Herbert Cowans: drums; Bennie Goodman: clarinet; Ben Webster: tenor saxophone; Teddy Wilson: piano; John Truehart: guitar; John Kirby: bass; Cozy Cole: drums; Jonah Jones: trumpet; Johnny Hodges: alto saxophone; Harry Carney: clarinet, baritone saxophone; Lawrence Lucie: guitar; Bunny Berigan, trumpet; Artie Shaw

On the first single from her upcoming album Ballads - due Aug. 11 on her own label, 675 Records - Cole’s pristine voice graces a cover of the famed Billie Holiday song God Bless the Child. In the Grammy-winning singer's rendition of the jazz classic, she transforms the song with the sound of a delicate acoustic guitar and her signature smooth vocals. The weightlessness of the track feels as if it could slip through your fingers like the ease of a breeze on a summer afternoon.
