Paul Alexander : Bitter Crop - The Heartache and Triumph of Billie Holiday's Last Year

  • Resumen

  • Bitter Crop is a superb biography of Billie Holiday who was probably the very best jazz singer there has ever been. The book title is takes from one of Billie's signature songs, 'Strange Fruit'.

    There have been films and many books about Billie's career but not all of them came close to telling the whole truth of a remarkable life.

    True there were drugs and alcohol but there was so mucah more than that. There was huge musical success and adulation - Billie considered her life to be a triumph.

    The conversation took place in July 2024 ..... 65 years after Billie died.
