Lady In Satin is Billie Holiday’s penultimate masterpiece. The 1958 gem
is one of her finest achievements and a full display of her immortal
vocal abilities. Joined by the Ray Ellis Orchestra, Holiday dazzles on
tunes including “For Heaven's Sake,” “You Don't Know What Love Is” and
“I'm A Fool To Want You.” The album is one of Holiday’s personal
favorites and an emotional listen from start to finish. It is one of
jazz’s bestselling albums and was inducted into the GRAMMY® Hall of
Fame.
