"Induction Category: Early Influence
Billie Holiday was the pre-eminent jazz singer of her day and among the most revered vocalists of the century. Though her brief life was fraught with tragedy, Holiday left a transcendent legacy of recorded work. Her pearly voice, exquisite phrasing and tough-tender persona influenced the likes of Janis Joplin and Diana Ross, among others. She performed and recorded in a jazzy swing-sing style from 1933 to 1958 with pianist-band leaders Benny Goodman, Teddy Wilson, Count Basie, Artie Shaw, and others. She was closely associated with tenor saxophonist Lester Prez Young, who dubbed her Lady Day. "
