Numbered, Limited Edition Clear Vinyl - Only 500 Copies!
From the show's original announcement:
"I am very proud to present now the singing star of our show. Her voice is the voice of jazz; a voice that cannot be imitated, that has become known throughout the world through a hundred celebrated records. She will be accompanied by Carl Drinkard on piano, Elaine Leighton on drums and Red Mitchell on bass. Ladies and gentlemen, the great Lady Day, Miss Billie Holiday!"
The present album offers a potent reminder, drawn from three sources, of the Lady during those magic years, the 1940s and early 1950s, just before her lifestyle took its toll irrevocably. The live tracks were taped at a concert during the European tour, Billie's first (and, as it turned out, only) tour of the continent.
Doxy's Clear Vinyl is made using the highest quality co-polymer available and processed without any carbon additive in order to dramatically reduce the electrical distortion often found on records.
By itself the co-polymer of vinyl is transparent. In order to make the record black in color the plant must use a carbon additive with trace metals that can become magnetized. This is what causes electrical distortion during playback.
