1959 Last Recording - Billie Holiday

His troubled life was born in Baltimore on April 7, 1915 (a few reports say 1912) under the real name "Eleanora Fagan Gough". Amazing, talented, and unforgettable, there's no doubt about that Billie Holiday was the first popular jazz singer to move audiences with the intense, personal feeling of classic blues, she changed the art of American pop vocals forever. She pass the way on july 17º 1959 in New York, and in many ways, this release makes me feel sad. You know why...

You will be always here, Billie!

Many Thanks ErrolKane... Great tribute!
