Description

Record Quality:   Good. Some crackles and pops. No deep scratches. It skips once on one track. No noticeable loud pops.

Cover Quality:   Good. There is seam splitting on three edges. No attempt has been made to repair this splitting. My advise is to let the buyer decide the best method for such repairs. Minor ring wear. No writing or markings on the cover. No snowing - ink and graphics are in good condition. The back cover printing and photo (b/w Billie Holiday) are in very good condition.

Billie Holiday Sings

10" LP Clef MGC 118 (Mercury MGC 118)

In the spring of 1952, Billie began recording for Norman Granz, first on Mercury Records (that was found in 1945 in Chicago, being specialized in jazz and blues) and, in the following year, on his own Clef label. This album was first released by Mercury and short after reissued by Clef. Its eight tracks were recorded in a single session in Los Angeles on April, 1952. This historic session, with Oscar Peterson on piano, was her first LA session (not considering the single track with Paul Whiteman years before).
