The Hits Limited edition

Contained here are some of the most important recordings by the great Billie Holiday (1915-1959), considered by many to be the best jazz singer of all time. This set's first CD compiles a selection of Billie's incredible ballad performances, while the second is devoted to her medium and up-tempo numbers.

Four songs from a series of sessions presenting Billie backed by Ben Webster and Harry "Sweets" Edison (also represented on the first two discs) have been added as a bonus.
