Our Take

Ah, Billie Holiday, the queen of jazz, the mistress of melancholy. Lady in Satin, her final studio album, now available on limited solid blue vinyl – a colour as soothing as her captivating voice.

Let's dive into this classic, shall we? The arrangements are lush, the orchestra sweeping you off your feet like a suave gentleman in a smoky jazz club. Each note is like a sip of fine wine, leaving you with a warm, fuzzy feeling.

But it's not all smooth sailing. Lady in Satin sees Holiday's voice weathered by years of heartache and pain, adding a raw, visceral quality to her performances. You can almost feel the tears in her voice as she croons through classics like "I'm a Fool to Want You" and "You Don't Know What Love Is".

The production may be a bit dated, but hey, so is your grandad's collection of vinyl records. And just like those records, Lady in Satin has stood the test of time, still enchanting listeners decades later.

So grab a glass of whiskey, dim the lights, and let Billie Holiday's Lady in Satin wash over you like a gentle wave of nostalgia. It may not be for everyone, but for those with a taste for vintage jazz and soulful storytelling, this album is a must-have in your collection. Cheers to Billie – may her voice continue to echo through the ages.
