A GREAT RECOMMENDED CHOICE FOR DIE HARD BILLIE HOLIDAY FANS,
By dejakhalil@aol.com (ATLANTA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lady Day's Diary (Paperback)
i love this book...it is a luxury...especially if one is beginning to listen to Billie Holiday's recordings from 1933-1959. it is more like an pictorial reference to accompany the books that you read on her as you follow her career. it is thick and chockful of fascinating bits...
5.0 out of 5 stars
It's as if Billie invited you to look through her scrapbook,
By A Customer
This review is from: Lady Day's Diary (Paperback)
It's as if Billie invited you to look through her scrapbook of newspaper clippings, posters, photos, letters and recording dates. One could pick nits (she sang in Charleston WV, not Charlestown, and appeared on the Amateur Hour in 1938, not 1937), but no nit should keep anyone from picking this book for their collection on Lady Day. It's her life day by day from 1937 until her tragic 1959 death. One is transported to the era of jazz and feels like a member of the road band along for the ride through Vail's exhaustive work
