Billie Holiday - Lady Sings the Blues - VINYL LP
About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Jazz
- Description: Vinyl LP repressing of this album from the Jazz legend. The Los Angeles sessions dating from 1954 offer a fresher-sounding Billie, but that in no way diminishes the quality of the songs recorded in New York City. When it was originally released on Clef records, Down Beat magazine gave the album a glowing review and five stars. In their review of the 78-rpm of 'Love Me Or Leave Me' coupled with 'I Thought About You,' Down Beat said 'What counts is the penetratingly personal presence of Lady Day.' When the album came out, there was a concert at New York City's Carnegie Hall on 10 November 1956 featuring much of this material along with readings from her autobiography. It was a sellout and despite the limitations with Billie's voice she delivered a superb performance. In less than three years, however, she would be dead. Album Tracks 1. Lady Sings the Blues (Side 1) 2. Trav'lin Light (Side 1) 3. Must Have That Man! (Side 1) 4. Some Other Spring (Side 1) 5. Strange Fruit (Side 1) 6. No Good Man (Side 1) 7. God Bless the Child (Side 2) 8. Good Morning Heartache (Side 2) 9. Love Me or Leave Me (Side 2) 10. Too Marvelous for Words (Side 2) 11. Willow Weep for Me (Side 2) 12. I Thought About You (Side 2)

It was released on August 10, 1979, following Jackson's critically well-received film performance in The Wiz.

Recording sessions took place between December 1978 and June 1979 at Allen Zentz Recording, Westlake Recording Studios, and Cherokee Studios in Los Angeles, California. Jackson collaborated with a number of other writers and performers such as Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder and Rod Temperton. Five singles were released from the album. It was his first solo under Epic Records, the tag he would record on until his death roughly 30 years later. Album Tracks 1. Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough 2. Rock with You 3.
