| | Billie Holiday Lady In Autumn: Best Of The Verve Years CD Billie Holiday Discography of CDs
Recorded between 1946 and 1959. Includes liner notes by Joel E. Siegel.
Digitally remastered by Dennis Drake, Andrew Nicholas, Thomas Ruff and Mark Wilder (PolyGram Studios) and Gert Van Hoeyen (PolyGram, The Netherlands).
Without question the greatest jazz singer there has ever been (or will ever be), Holiday's unmistakable sound, her inimitable phrasing, her faultless sense of what was right, helped mould an artist unique in the history of popular music. In the early years her joyous, youthful voice was backed by soloists of the calibre of Buck Clayton, her close friend Lester Young, and her ideal arranger, pianist Teddy Wilson. Towards the end of her life her voice was a flaking, fractured caricature of itself but her commanding artistry and musical integrity lent dignity and poignancy to her recordings.
LADY IN AUTUMN: BEST OF THE VERVE YEARS comes with a 32 page booklet including rare photos.

The New England Jazz Ensemble saw the light of day in June of 1991. Its formation was prompted by musicians who had taken one too many sentimental journeys and trips on the "Skyliner." At the same time, these musicians wanted to continue to experience the excitement of a big-band setting. There's nothing as invigorating emotionally and musically as "16 men swinging." Drawing upon the large base of good musicians in the New England area, the group was established and brings the dynamics and solidarity of a big band to modern music. Mike Jones, who has been with the Sonny Costanzo and Artie Shaw organizations, is the founder of the group. Walt Gwardyak, a charter member, is the musical director and pianist. Among others, he has worked with the Buddy Rich Band.

This greatest-hits compilation has 20 tracks from British Rock band the Shadows (also known as Cliff Richard's former backup band).
This exclusive Australian CD includes the hits "Black is Black," "San Francisco," and "Good Vibrations."
This CD reissue of a 1987 release finds England's number one instrumental group tackling a batch of old standards in their typical style. Tunes like "Black Is Black," "Stardust," "Ghost Riders in the Sky," "In the Mood," "The Lonely Bull," and "Good Vibrations" get the typical Shadows touch, and the inclusion of old favorites like "Nivram" (lead guitarist's Hank Marvin last name spelled backwards), "Quartermaster's Stores," and "Sacha" (a number one hit in Australia for Marvin as a solo act in 1970) make this a worthy companion to any greatest hits package you might already have on the band. Instrumental fans take note; this one's a good one! ~ Cub Koda
The Shadows only really dominated British pop and rock music for about five years, from late 1958 through 1963, but they've ...
