HOLIDAY,BILLIE - SOLITUDE Vinyl LP

180-Gram Vinyl Limited Edition. Contains specially prepared liner notes by Brian Morton. After an impasse in which she mostly recorded with tightly arranged groups (for Commodore) and big bands with strings (for Decca), Billie Holiday signed her last long-term contract with Norman Granz. He tried to repeat the small group magic of her early days. Solitude included Billie's first studio sessions for Granz, and features the singer backed by Charlie Shavers on trumpet, Flip Phillips on tenor sax, and the Oscar Peterson Trio plus drummers Alvin Stoller or J. C. Heard. THE COMPLETE ALBUM + 3 BONUS TRACKS -180-GRAM VIRGIN VINYL - LIMITED EDITION - Contains specially prepared liner notes by renowned music writer BRIAN MORTON
