Our Take

In a world of Auto-Tuned, overproduced pop stars, Billie Holiday's "Lady In Satin" is like a breath of fresh air. This album, available in both the mono and stereo versions, showcases the iconic jazz singer at her most vulnerable and rawest.

In the mono version, you can practically feel the smoky jazz club atmosphere seeping through your speakers. Holiday's voice is hauntingly beautiful, full of longing and emotion. Tracks like "I'm a Fool to Want You" and "You Don't Know What Love Is" will tug at your heartstrings and make you believe in the power of music.

But don't count out the stereo version either. The separation of instruments adds an extra layer of depth to the already textured arrangements. "Violets for Your Furs" sounds even more lush and romantic, while "It's Easy to Remember" will transport you to a world of love and heartbreak.

Overall, both versions of "Lady In Satin" are essential listens for any true music lover. Billie Holiday's timeless talent shines through, proving once again why she is considered one of the greatest jazz singers of all time. So sit back, pour yourself a stiff drink, and let Lady Day serenade you into the night. Cheers.
