Holiday is also quite expressive on performances that range from 'Fine and Mellow,' 'I Got a Right to Sing the Blues' and 'Yesterdays' in 1939 to 'My Old Flame,' 'I'll Be Seeing You,' and 'He's Funny That Way' in 1944.ДЇor those with even a casual interest in Holiday's legacy, this superbВ album is essential listening. TheВ album gets off to an impressive start with the controversial 'Strange Fruit,' a bone-chilling account of lynching in the Deep South that ended up being released on Commodore because Columbia was afraid to touch it. But her Commodore output was first-rate, and Lady Day excels whether she's joined by trumpeter Frankie Newton's octet at a 1939 session or by pianist Eddie Heywood's orchestra at three sessions in 1944. Holiday never singed an exclusive contract with Commodore - she only freelanced for the label, and the ultra-influential jazz singer spent a lot more time recording for Columbia in the 1930s and early 1940s, and for Decca from 1944-1950. While 'The Complete Commodore Recordings' contains all of the alternate takes that Holiday recorded for Commodore in 19, this collection only concerns itself with the master takes (which total 16). But for the more casual listener, it's best to pass on that two-CD set and stick with 'The Commodore Master Takes'.

If you're a completist who insists on having everything that Billie Holiday recorded, 'The Complete Commodore Recordings' is required listening.
