BILLIE HOLIDAY - BODY AND SOUL (HYBRID SACD)

Billie Holiday Body And Soul on Hybrid SACD

Small jazz groups brought out the best in Billie Holiday, especially groups as good as the one heard on this classic 1957 recording. Ben Webster, Harry "Sweets" Edison and the other member of this stellar ensemble were not just gifted soloists but sensitive accompanists as well. Lady Day was rarely more ably supported than she was on this program of sturdy standards. More importantly, she rarely sounded more luminous.
