Holiday, Billie
Lady Love (clear)
Though she had been performing professionally since the late 1920s, as a teenager in Harlem, during its Renaissance, the
immortal Billie Holiday didn't play a single night on the European continent until 1954. It was in that year that the
great journalist and musician Leonard Feather, and a Swedish promoter organized the Jazz Club U.S.A. tour, named after
Feather's wildly popular radio program. Featuring Red Norvo, Sonny Clark, and more, the centerpiece of Jazz Club U.S.A.
was, undoubtedly, Lady Day. Recorded at various dates across the tour, Lady Love shows Holiday still had it, despite the
turmoil, and drug and alcohol abuse, her voice remained strong, a stunning document of one of America's greatest
treasures on her first ever tour of Europe.
