Verve, 1958

It is undeniable that Billie Holiday's singing changed in her later years. Her voice darkened and shifted to a lower range. Her economy of expression distilled her sound to its essence - a kind of heightened speech. The classic LP-Songs For Distingué Lovers- her best work of the 1950s - has also deepened and become burnished with time.
