If by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people - their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties - someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad; if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal." - John F. Kennedy

Billie Holiday

The Postmistress just delivered my latest gift to myself from Amazon...
Billie Holiday - Greatest Hits and Billie Holiday The Ultimate Collection

The Greatest hits one are all songs recorded for Columbia at Vocation and Brunswick between 1933 and 1942 and are one of the great recording collections of the 20th century...not just my opinion. I can't believe I waited so long to buy this.

The second is a new collection that does contain some of the above recordings (4 or 5) but covers her entire career up until 1958. 42 recordings in all. The bonus is a DVD of rare appearances on TV and film.

Overdose time.
