Billie Holiday Discography

Session 1957-Dec-08

Date:	Sunday, December 8, 1957
Location:	New York City, CBS Studio 58
Band:	Billie Holiday with Mal Waldron and All Stars
Type:	TV
Remarks:	The sound of Jazz
Note:	On Wednesday, 4 December 1957, Columbia Records documented one of the most important jazz recordings in the history of the music ("The Sound of Jazz"/CS-8040) with an all-star cast from various record labels. On Sunday, 8 December 1957, in what remains perhaps the most important jazz event in television history, CBS television aired a live broadcast, including most of the musicians from the recording session, as they performed the same music in a recording studio environment. Shown here are (l-r) Billie Holiday, Lester Young, Coleman Hawkins and Gerry Mulligan.
