Our Take

Billie Holiday, affectionately known as Lady Day, is a legendary figure in the world of jazz. Her iconic album "Lady Sings The Blues" has been re-released as a Numbered Edition on Clear Vinyl, and let me tell you, it's pure magic.

From the moment the needle hits the groove, you are transported to a smoky jazz club in 1950s New York City. Holiday's sultry voice wraps around you like a warm hug, with each note delivering a gut-wrenching emotional punch.

The production on this reissue is top-notch, allowing Holiday's vocals to shine brightly against the backdrop of lush arrangements and impeccable musicianship. The transparent vinyl adds a touch of sophistication, making this album a must-have for any audiophile collector.

Standout tracks include the haunting "Strange Fruit" and the jaunty "Fine and Mellow," showcasing Holiday's unparalleled range and depth as a performer. Her ability to convey pain and longing through her music is truly a gift to the world.

So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, dim the lights, and let Billie Holiday serenade you with her tales of love, loss, and everything in between. "Lady Sings The Blues" is a timeless masterpiece that deserves a spot in every music lover's collection. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
