1	Gold (2005) more music like this by Billie Holiday Hip-O's 2004 two-CD and one-DVD compilation The Ultimate Collection set a new standard for Billie Holiday retrospectives. It boasted not only a strong selection of songs, but also material from all of her scattered labels (Brunswick, Decca, Commodore, Verve) and it stood, in effect, as the first best-of compilation capable of living up to its ... see all copies from $9.14! new only from $10.29!
2	The Ultimate Collection (2005) more music like this by Billie Holiday Although the title could only have been coined by a marketing department, The Ultimate Collection deserves the highest of praise. It is not only the first American compilation to survey Billie Holiday's entire 25-year career -- and astutely, at that -- but it also includes a DVD that presents the lion's share of her film and TV appearances, a full ... see all copies from $34.83! new only from $34.83!
3	Greatest Hits [Columbia/Legacy] (1998) more music like this by Billie Holiday There's something scandalous about the fact that this 13-song CD is, as of spring 2000, the only upgrade to date of Columbia Records' holdings on Billie Holiday. It's good as far as it goes, as part of Sony Music's 20-bit remastering of the highlights of its jazz catalog, but it makes one wonder how long listeners have to wait for the nine volumes ... see all copies from $6.94! new only from $6.94!
4	Lady Day: The Master Takes and Singles (2007) more music like this by Billie Holiday Billie Holiday's story is so huge, her artistry so vast, and her impact so incalculable, that even attempting to corral a representative sampling of it within a single collection of recordings is an overwhelming, perhaps foolhardy task. Many have tried, of course, and literally hundreds of options of varying quality and legitimacy, scattered ... see all copies from $27.09! new only from $42.20!
5	God Bless the Child: The Very Best of Billie Holiday (2006) more music like this by Billie Holiday It's easy to call any collection "The Very Best Of" and mislead naïve listeners into believing the claim until they take the record home and give it a spin, and find it was compiled of dead dogs or substandard material licensed by some shoddy label to make a buck. Not so with this fine 14-cut collection by Sony/BMG Legacy, God Bless the Child: The ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.06!
6	The Billie Holiday Story [Chrome Dreams] (2001) more music like this by Billie Holiday see all copies from $11.60! new only from $29.07!
7	Lady Day's 25 Greatest: 1933-1944 (1996) more music like this by Billie Holiday Although she didn't technically have the greatest voice and range, the legendary Billie Holiday had an intangible ability to bring the full of her life to bear on whatever she sang, and every song she touched, no matter how trite, gained poignancy because of it. Modeling her vocal phrasing to echo the sound of a jazz horn, and fully aware of how ... see all copies from $4.65! new only from $7.59!
8	The Quintessential Billie Holiday, Vol. 1 (1933-1935) (1933) more music like this by Billie Holiday After years of reissuing Billie Holiday's recordings in piecemeal fashion, Columbia finally got it right with this nine-CD Quintessential series. All of Lady Day's 1933-1942 studio recordings (although without the alternate takes) receive the treatment they deserve in this program. Vol. 1 has Holiday's first two tentative performances from 1933 ... see all copies from $1.99!
9	The One and Only Lady Day (2006) more music like this by Billie Holiday see all copies from $10.54! new only from $10.54!
10	Ain't Nobody's Business (1997) more music like this by Billie Holiday see all copies from $5.07! new only from $5.07!
11 view cover	Dream of Life (1998) more music like this by Carmen McRae This 1998 CD features singer Carmen McRae late in her career, after recording her notable Thelonious Monk tribute but before cutting her final album, a set of Sarah Vaughan-associated songs. Joined by the WDR Big Band and performing arrangements by John Clayton, McRae is in fine form on a wide-ranging program. Among the better selections are "In ... see all copies from $5.06!
12 view cover	God Bless the Child [Prime Cuts] (1995) more music like this by Billie Holiday see all copies from $4.95!
13 view cover	Lady Day Swings! (2002) more music like this by Billie Holiday Lady Day Swings collects some of the legendary songstress' best-known swing performances, including "What a Little Midnight Can Do," "Nice Work If You Can Get It," "Them There Eyes," and "I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm." Culled from the Lady Day: The Complete Billie Holiday on Columbia box set, this compilation offers a more focused -- and, ... see all copies from $13.99!
14 view cover	Sings Lover Man and Other Billie Holiday Classics [Bonus Tracks] (1961) more music like this by Carmen McRae This CD reissues one of Carmen McRae's best recordings of the 1960s. McRae always considered Billie Holiday to be her primary influence, so a tribute album was a natural project for her. Joined by her regular trio (pianist Norman Simmons, bassist Bob Cranshaw, and drummer Walter Perkins) and three guests (cornetist Nat Adderley, tenor man Eddie ... see all copies from $32.95!
15 view cover	Portrait of Billie Holiday (1998) more music like this by Billie Holiday see all copies from $16.46! new only from $16.46!
16 view cover	Sultry Ladies of Jazz, Vol. 1 (1988) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $26.37! new only from $26.37!
17 view cover	Miss Brown to You [Jazz Time] (1937) more music like this by Billie Holiday see all copies from $3.99! new only from $3.99!
18 view cover	Song Time (1963) more music like this by Carmen McRae In the 1960s Carmen McRae did several sessions for a public-service radio series called The Navy Swings. They were 15-minute shows, with Navy recruiting spiels between songs, so the performances are miniatures two or three minuts long. The repertoire is familiar from her LPs of the time (when her voice was in its prime), but the intimate setting ... see all copies from $8.98! new only from $8.98!

20 view cover	Jazz Divas [Boxsets 1998] (1998) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $7.04! new only from $7.04!
21 view cover	The Billie Holiday Collection, Vol. 1 (2003) more music like this by Billie Holiday Although she didn't technically have the greatest voice and range, the legendary Billie Holiday had an intangible ability to bring the full of her life to bear on whatever she sang, and every song she touched, no matter how trite, gained poignancy because of it. This set is the first of four single discs drawing highlights from the ten-CD Lady Day ... see all copies from $11.06! new only from $11.06!
22 view cover	California Here I Come (1994) more music like this by Hal Smith The 1989 edition of drummer Hal Smith's Rhythmakers is quite reminiscent of a 1930s Chicago jazz-type group. Cornetist Chris Tyle is heard throughout in top form, clarinetist Bobby Gordon emulates Pee Wee Russell as usual, Frank Powers is quite fluent on tenor and clarinet, and pianist Ray Skjelbred looks back toward Joe Sullivan and Jess Stacy ... see all copies from $13.64! new only from $13.64!
23 view cover	The Best of Billie Holiday [Compendia] (2005) more music like this by Billie Holiday see all copies from $5.91! new only from $5.91!
24 view cover	The Billie Holiday Collection [Columbia/Legacy] (2005) more music like this by Billie Holiday For anyone who missed any of the three original Billie Holiday Collections on Legacy, this box, which contains 54 cuts on three discs covering the years 1935 through 1939, compiles those three volumes handily. Many hits from the singer's prime are here -- even though the cover photo isn't necessarily representative. The only problem is that, soon ... see all copies from $26.60! new only from $26.60!
25 view cover	1935-1958 (2003) more music like this by Billie Holiday see all copies from $17.79! new only from $17.79!
