Anybody else catch the Charles Osgood files on the CBS Radio Network today about this famed jazz singer?By Don KidwellI had just started this book yesterday and finished this morning before heading into work which made it all the more remarkable when I heard tell of a brief mention of her on the radio as I was driving. Such a short; tragic life so full of promise but marred by poverty; rape; alcohol and heroin addiction. Glad she is still getting some recognition today and I plan on going home this evening and listening to more of her musical works including "Strange Fruit" ; "Lover Man" and "Crazy He Calls Me" among others. One quote from 'Lady Day' I liked before I start the work day; "I'm always making a comeback; but nobody ever tells me where I've been." Very good book!4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. The woman; the legend!By DD GottAn amazing account of her life. She was exceptional and yet so sad. If she wasn't being hurt she couldn't proform and this lead to the end of her life. Such a shame for the world to lose that beautiful voice. An awesome read.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. easy read - insightful historyBy JimPainful; enlightening; insightful. She never knew the impact she had. The respect and influence was mostly realized after her death.
