Would anyone happen to know what the piece of music is that plays in the background at the end of this clip? If you know, thanks in advance.

[nigel1034]

@onefarenheit the music when the "credits" are rolling? Or when Lady is talking?

[onefarenheit]

@nigel1034 The music that can be heard at the time 3:20 until the end of the clip. Does that clarify?

[nigel1034]

@onefarenheit It's called "Tell Me A Bedtime Story" by Herbie Hancock(:

Wow!! Thanks so much for sharing the interview. I admire Lady Day she is a talented and beautiful woman.

[mrsberto]

@georgiesgirl13 Fortunately, after a few years Amy will be remembered only for her beautiful voice and music. ;) Billie's speaking voice so strange...probably damaged by drugs.

[georgiesgirl13]

Thank you for giving a voice to Lady Day, I wish I was fortunate enough to hear her sing, or had sense to ask my grandmother who she was when she was just a name . Great talent, many hate Amy Winehouse but in life and death the girl was just like her.

"Cooking sewing, dusting..." doesn't sound like "settling down" to me-so glad the rigidity of gender expectations has loosened up so much since then! Easy to forget how narrow the world was for a woman-especially black, back then.

Thank you for finding this rare interview...there are times when she sounds clear and other times she is slurring is it safe to assume that she was high then?

[billie44]

@chucktown56 he was mckay juckie also.They went to jail in 56 that is when married her

[godvia]

She Married Mckay in 1957..So the interview has to between 1957& 1958

Her way of speaking reminds me of Lester Young's.I heard him in some interviews i have,they have similar approach on bonding the words :)
