    Like last show, we were musically falling behind Billie Holiday’s account of the details of her life from the book “Lady Sings the Blues”.

    So once again we will forego reading from the book so we can play some of her best music from the late ‘30s without editing out some of her best recordings. Therefore, like last show, we hope to have more music than talk for this episode.
