At Storyville

by Billie Holiday

Overview

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
