4.0 out of 5 stars Incomplete Sampler Sep 27 2003
By Chia-heng Yao
Format:Audio CD
Far from being a jazz buff, I'd still take issue with the other recommendations of this set to be a sufficient Billie Holiday sampler for the general public. The single most important reason - it's missing "STRANGE FRUIT".

It is Jazz's "Guernica", and therefore belongs in *any* Billie Holiday collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, just great! Jan 30 2010
By Martine
Format:Audio CD
If you are not a Billy holiday fan & would like to discover her music, I strongly recommend this compilation. I have to admit that the recordings could be better, but overall, Billy holiday is a great timeless artist that needs to be remembered. Ageless!

5.0 out of 5 stars Descent Compilation May 9 2004
By Gina
Format:Audio CD
Apart from the fact that some of my favorite Billie Holiday songs are missing...its still a very good intro to those first timers. I first heart HOliday when I was 18 years old..and 5 years later...I still can't get enough of her ...she's such a great singer...along with Ella Fitzgerald she is the only one who can bring me to tears.

4.0 out of 5 stars A "Politically Correct" Compilation?
A 2-CD "best of" compilation for Billie Holiday without "Strange Fruit" doesn't make sense, but historically record labels have been reluctant to include this... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Save money and buy the German set instead!
Don't bother paying a ton of money for the Billie Holiday Columbia box set when you can buy the 10 disc German box set called "Portrait" for a whole lot less. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars The Art of Artlessness
Unless you plan to invest in the "Complete Lady Day on Columbia," this is the Billie Holiday collection either to start with or to own (if you plan to stick to one). Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars 5 Stars if you're an early period Billie person, like most
Nothing wrong with the presentation. Me, I'm a late period Billie person. But this gets the job done (to say the least!).

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Music, Wretched Packaging
Just a few words. This is one of the most essential collections in jazz. So much has been said about the wonderful music here that there is really nothing else I can add. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Something Divine
I'm listening to this set as I write this and it's truly a great thing! Good (if not great) sound, lovely packaging and Bilie. I just love it. The only drag is the book's contents. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars CLASSIC JAZZ
Is there anything better? Could she do it any better if she was educated by the best? Well, she was educated by the best and she had the feelings.
