fantastic thank you sir!

Billie's FIRST recording, right after Benny cut two sides with Ethel Waters {Billie: "She sings like her shoes are too tight"}.

I cannot stress this enough: you are listening to a jazz legend in the making!

HEY! I thought you'd gotten rid of this one to help fund another acquisition a while ago?

Either way, great to hear it again. :)

@SwingMan1937 I sold the first issue on bluewax in E+ and kept this store stock copy, which is probably from 1934 or even 1935. A fantastic player... :-D

@Atticus70 STORE STOCK?!?!?!?!?!

Man, you never cease to amaze. ;)

Billie Holiday is one of my favourite female singers, definitely one of the greats. Upbeat songs from her are rare, she put her life into her singing. Thank you.
