Condition: Brand New Ships from: Melbourne
Recorded in five sessions from 1956-1957 and released in 1958, this 12-track affair is loaded with the classic
standards from Berlin, Ellington, Gershwin and more. Though some claimed Billie Holiday was beyond her peak at
this point, it was Miles Davis who countered that this was her most effective time with her "deepest understanding
and control" of the repertoire she was performing.
Her supporting cast on this album contributes to that as well, which included Barney Kessel (Guitar), Ben Webster (Tenor Sax), "Sweets" Edison (Trumpet), and Jimmy Rowles (Piano). Verve Acoustic Sounds Series features transfers from analog tapes and remastered 180-gram vinyl in deluxe gatefold packaging.
