Lady Day & Prez 
Solo saxofon tenor Lester Young (la timpul 1.28)
Este aproape de nesuportat felul in care ea il priveste. ( la 1.43-2.00) Este atit de disperat indragostita de Lester Young incit abia isi ascunde suferinta cind cinta el.
Este o piesa pe care o pot revedea de zeci de ori.
Si cu toate astea Billie Holiday nu lasa niciodata sa ii sara rindul la solo 🙂 (incepind cu 2.05 )
Pofta de Lester Young mi-a fost stirnita de filmul Pagina Opt a lui David Hare- BBC Two espionage thriller, MI5 , cu Bill Nighy si Rachel Weisz. E 2011 si … disponibil

On December 8, 1957, Young appeared with Billie Holiday, Coleman Hawkins, Ben Webster, Roy Eldridge, and Gerry Mulligan in the CBS television special The Sound of Jazz, performing Holiday’s tunes “Lady Sings The Blues” and “Fine and Mellow”. It was a reunion with Holiday, with whom he’d fallen out of contact for years. She was also in decline at the end of her career, and they both gave moving performances.
!!!Young’s solo was brilliant, considered by many jazz musicians an unparalleled marvel of economy, phrasing and extraordinarily moving emotion.!!!!
But, Young seemed gravely ill, and was the only horn player who was seated (except during his solo) during the performance. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lester_Young

My man don’t love me
He treats me oh so mean
My man he don’t love me
He treats me awful mean
He’s the lowest man
That I’ve ever seen
He wears high trimmed pants
Stripes are really yellow
He wears high trimmed pants
Stripes are really yellow
But when he starts in to love me
He is so fine and mellow
