Billie Holiday Discography

Session 1956-Dec-01

Date:	Saturday, December 1, 1956
Location:	New York City, 340 Riverside Drive
Band:	(none)
Type:	LR
Remarks:	Recorded Live at Leonard Feather's party
Note:	Thanks to Theo Kuijpers. After waiting for 7 years, Theo found 2 new recordings of Billie Holiday recorded at Leonard Feather's party. Billie sings two tracks and is accompanied by Helin Merril on the piano. From the website http://http://jazzstation-oblogdearnaldodesouteiros.blogspot.com: "I usually don't refer to YouTube here, except for some notable exceptions. And this is the case. Billie Holiday & Helen Merrill singing "You Go To My Head" together in November 1956 (at Leonard Feather's home at 340 Riverside Drive in New York), with the man himself (jazz's most important historian ever) at the piano. A treasure!"
