It is legendary singer Billie Holiday's penultimate album completed by the singer and released in her lifetime (her final album, \u003cem\u003eBillie Holiday\u003c\/em\u003e, being recorded in March 1959 and released just after her death).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAllMusic\u003c\/em\u003e says: \"The feeling and tension she manages to put into almost every track set this album as one of her finest achievements. 'You've Changed' and 'I Get Along Without You Very Well' are high art performances from the singer who saw life from the bottom up.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe song material for \u003cem\u003eLady in Satin\u003c\/em\u003e derived from the usual sources for Holiday in her three-decade career, that of the Great American Songbook of classic pop. Unlike the bulk of Holiday's recordings, rather than in the setting of a jazz combo Holiday returns to the backdrop of full orchestral arrangements as done during her Decca years, this time in the contemporary vein of Frank Sinatra or Ella Fitzgerald on her \u003cem\u003eSong Books\u003c\/em\u003e series. The album consists of songs Holiday had never recorded before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBandleader Ray Ellis used a 40-piece orchestra, complete with horns, strings, reeds and even a three-piece choir. It would turn out to be Holiday's most expensive music production. Soloists on the album included Mel Davis, Urbie Green, and bebop trombone pioneer J. J. Johnson.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNow with our 45 RPM release, mastered from the original analog tape by Bernie Grundman, and pressed by our own Quality Record Pressings, the best-sounding version of this historic album gives listeners an even richer sonic experience\u003cstrong\u003e. The dead-quiet double-LP, with the music spread over four sides of vinyl, reduces distortion and high frequency loss as the wider-spaced grooves let your stereo cartridge track more accurately. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginal album produced by Irving Townsend, and \u003cspan class=\"mw-redirect\"\u003eengineered\u003c\/span\u003e by Fred Plaut.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Acoustic Sounds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56666414973260,"sku":"753088014475","price":12.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/2913\/4412\/files\/AAPJ_144-45__164149__06042021012817-7940.jpg?v=1770372174","url":"https:\/\/vinylpulses.com\/products\/pre-order-billie-holiday-lady-in-satin-analogue-productions-45rpm-lp","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
