Billie Holiday is in generally good form for this club appearance. On most of the selections she is accompanied by the
Carl Drinkard Trio, but six others find her joined by
Buster Harding's Trio. The great tenor
Stan Getz sits in on three of these numbers, making the listener wish that he and
Lady Day had collaborated more extensively. This set of standards (most of which had been recorded previously by
Holiday) are not up to the quality of her
Decca output but are enjoyable nevertheless. ~ Scott Yanow
