Anyone else never get tired of Billie Holiday?

She’s my all time favorite vocalist.

Anyone have recommendations for specific recordings?

I prefer her older work and picked up this.

If you can find the original set, you'll be in for a treat. Later editions lack all the details and extras. Here is a listing for one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/THE-COMPLETE-BILLIE-HOLIDAY-ON-VERVE-10CD-NUMBERED-FULL-SILVER-limited-edition/143511172460?epid=0&hash=item2169eeb56c:g:IBEAAOSwCXVeMtsp Bob

Some might find it annoying, but hearing Billie sing 'My Yiddishe Mama' to her child was pretty neat. Of course, if you don't want to buy that set, you can definitely stream it on Qobuz. You'll get the finished albums without the outtakes. Bob
