Description
It is undeniable that Billie Holidays singing changed in her later years. Her voice darkened and shifted to a lower range. Her economy of means distilled her sound to its expressive essence a kind of heightened speech. The classic LP Songs For Distingue Lovers has also deepened and become burnished with time. Maybe its that still-arresting word, distingue; maybe its that iconic, tinted image of Lady Day on the cover. But now that legendary LP, with the singers best studio work of the Fifties, is available at 45 RPM!
