Our Take
Billie Holiday - Ultimate Collection, The: 8 Original Albums Step aside, Beyoncé. Move over, Adele. The one and only Lady Day is back with a vengeance in this mammoth collection of her greatest hits. The Ultimate Collection boasts a whopping eight original albums from the iconic jazz singer, each one dripping with soul and emotion. From the hauntingly beautiful "Strange Fruit" to the playful "Them There Eyes," Holiday shows us why she was truly one of a kind. Her velvety voice wraps itself around each note, caressing our ears and stirring our souls in a way that only she can. But this collection isn't all smoky ballads and heart-wrenching torch songs. Tracks like "Lover Man" and "All of Me" showcase Holiday's playful side, proving that she was just as adept at swingin' tunes as she was at breaking hearts. The remastered recordings sound crisp and clear, allowing Holiday's voice to shine in all its glory. Each track feels like a long-lost treasure, waiting to be rediscovered by a whole new generation of music lovers. So grab a glass of your finest bourbon, dim the lights, and let Billie Holiday sweep you off your feet with this dazzling collection of her most iconic works. Trust us, you won't regret it.
