Rare Live Recordings- 1934-1959 review:
Album Description:
“The 1st liked jazz singer to move audiences with the acute, personal feeling of classic blues, Billie Holiday changed the art of American pop vocals forever.” All Music Guide
“Considered by many to be the greatest jazz vocalist of all time, Billie Holiday lived a tempestuous and hard life. Her singing expressed an unbelievable depth of feeling that spoke of hard times and injustice also as triumph. Though her career was comparatively short and frequently erratic, she left behind a body of work as great as any vocalist before or since.” PBSthe, “American Masters”
A five CD compilation of very rare live performance recordings from 1935 1959, plus a in depth liner timeline of performance info.
In 1972, thirteen years after her death, Congress expanded protections to include recorded musical performances. Billie Holiday could benefited largely from such protection: throughout the more than twenty five years of her career, Holiday gave an not known number of live performances on TV &, radio and in clubs &, concert halls, many of which were recorded both officially and unofficially by sound engineers, fellow musicians, and fans. Today ESP Disk’, which for many years was assembling unofficial recordings of some number of artists from before 1972, released one of the most complete collections of live Billie Holiday recordings to date, many earlier available but most not. These recordings, laid out in chronologicalorder, not only show the arc of Holiday’s development as a vocalist but give a rare behind the scenes look into how the singer approached her musicians and her audience.
The 1st disc of this compilation opens with a twenty year old Billie Holiday performing with Duke Ellington in 1935, followed by a radio broadcast from the Savoy Hotel in New York two years afterward in which Holiday fronts the Count Basie Orchestra. The next four discs cover Holiday’s career from 1949 to her death in 1959. Throughout those ten years, advancesin radio and TV technology changed the way Americans consumed entertainment, and the mass proliferation of recorded media from that time leaves us with dozens of examples of Holiday’s live performances. Set in the perspective of other early recorded media presentations, it’s easy to imagine how revolutionary Holiday’s singing sounded to mainstream American audiences, with her plaintive voice, blues inflections, and uncensored delivery.
This magnificent set will include a portfolio of photographs and performance data detailing a historical timeline of rare radio/television transmits and concert performances and the events and situations that lead to these powerful performances along with explanations of many of her most liked material. The set also will include a rare and private recordingof she and many friends in an impromptu setting, with Holiday singing “My Yiddisha Mamma.”
