2 Audio tracks. "Lover Come Back" and Ain't Nobody's Business".
Review by Ted Goia in Jazz.com:
Musicians:
Billie Holiday (vocals), Stan Getz (tenor sax),
Buster Harding (piano), John Fields (bass), Marquis Foster (drums)
.
Composed by Sigmund Romberg and Oscar Hammerstein
.
Recorded: Live at Storyville, Boston, October 29, 1951
In October 1951, George Wein booked Billie Holiday to play at his Storyville nightclub in Boston, where she shared the bill with 24 year-old tenor saxophonist Stan Getz. Getz had modeled his sound on Lester Young, Holiday's collaborator on many of her most celebrated recordings, and the idea of getting him to join her on stage for a few songs must have seemed an inspired move by all parties. The results - for once - more than lived up to the expectations. I can't recall another Holiday recording from the 1950s where she sings with such energy and enthusiasm. Getz, for his part, only plays obbligato, but you can sense his pride at serving as President - or Prez, to be more specific - for a day. This shimmering track is not well known, but deserves a place in the Lady Day Hall of Fame.

At the age of 15 , while attending an English Grammar school I first heard Billy singing"What a little moonlight can do for you" and became captivated. Today at 85 I remain captivated. Al.B.
