The Complete CARNEGIE HALL Performances / BILLIE HOLIDAY...

The Complete CARNEGIE HALL Performances / BILLIE HOLIDAYになります。

はい、誰もが知っている「Billie Holiday」になります。

ご多分に漏れず、私のVocalの中で唯一大好きなArtistです。とはいっても、エアーチェックとか入れると、何が何だかわからない、てんやわんやのコレクションになってきてます。(苦笑)
ということで、わりかし安いというのもあるんですが、Completeとつくものは、できるだけ購入しています。そんな中、これは、秀逸のような気がします。よくまとめられていると思いますし、アナウンスなんかも、そこそこ納められているので、聞いていて、楽しくなってきます。(笑)
ということで、中古で安く出ていたら、買ってみるのもいいかと思いますよ。
