brownie Posted January 28, 2006 Report Posted January 28, 2006 Might be worth catching for those who get BBC World TV.. Have not seen this yet, reruns skedded: Billie Holiday Quote
brownie Posted January 29, 2006 Author Report Posted January 29, 2006 Turned out to be a rerun of the 2001 BBC program that was produced by David Turnbull. No new footage, just several short and awful inclusions of black and white footage of a thinned down singer supposed to impersonate Billie Holiday as she appeared on stage! Short interviews with author Donald Clark, writers Nat Hentoff, Dan Morgenstern, Stanley Crouch, etc... Annie Ross, Yolanda Bavan, John Levy and Bobby Tucker also reminisced. But the Billie Holiday appearances are still magic! Quote
