Description
Billie Holiday's 'Lady Sings The Blues' plus 1 bonus track pressed on limited edition 180g blue coloured vinyl. Contains new specially prepared liner notes by Penguin Guide to Jazz's writer Brian Morton and Paris' prestigious Jazz Magazine.

"Billie Holiday is an important artist in the time of Black Lives Matter. Her voice and her songs are a permanent reminder that the second act of American life doesn't just have to balance the first; it has to redress it, too. And that is more than a comeback." - Penguin Guide To Jazz

Description
180g vinyl LP reissue of Billie Holiday's 'Lady Sings the Blues' + bonus CD digipak included containing the complete album plus 9 bonus tracks.

"Lady Sings the Blues, I understand, was a rather stormy session in its first eight tracks; but to a listener who wasn't there, it comes through as a characteristic, satisfyingly troubling, indelible Billie monologue. Tempos are generally slow with some walking-medium. No other singer now in jazz gets so fully into the bloodstream as Billie still does...Billie still has the best vocal game in town when she's playing for keeps. Note, for example, the remarkably effective, understated "I Thought About You" on which Billie is backed only by Bobby Tucker." - Nat Hentoff
