    Take a look at my GIrl...aint she sad.

    Take a look at my girl...its a shame the way her life ended....a junky and broke, and may I add...broken down. But I love her...she is really mine in my heart. Move your mouse over the picture and take a close up look at her face....she looks really older than she looks. She died age 44. Heroin and booze and those who used her for gain did her in. It was really the low lifes who kept her shot-up and used her like a pimp who are to blame. But Billy lives on in my heart.

    PoppaC you got any Billy Holiday in your collection??? You cant be an JAZZ audiophile or Jazz music lover with out some Billy in your collection, She is an acquired taste, she grows on you once you stat to figure out music ...and with todays mastering you can get some pretty good recordings as well. And she sang with all the old big shots playing being hind her. Basie, Woody Herman, Glen Miller, Duke Ellington,The Prez Lester Young, Lucky Thompson, Ben Webster, Coleman Hawkins, Benny Carter, Charlie Park, Dizzy, Dexter Gordon... and just about every body else who was something back in the 40's and 50's. And may I add...she was loved all over the world and sang all over the world.
