About This Song

About "Reading From Lady Sings The Blues, Pt. 2 (Live At Carnegie Hall / 1956)" by Billie Holiday

Part two of the memoir reading finds Millstein's voice threading through Holiday's past like a needle. The Carnegie Hall hush becomes a character in itselfβ€”calm on the surface, but every anecdote carries a tremor of unease. It's a documentary in sound, where the spoken word bruises as much as any melody.
