Liner notes by Leo nard Feather, the jazz • • re,-', add to the overall quality of the work. TRULY UNFORGETTABLE Beyond all this, and more im mediately, is the high entertain ment value of the disc. Opening the set, Biiiie rings the immortal evergreen, “Body and Soul:” streams off to a rendition of ‘‘Strange Fruit,” which alleged ly touches on her stormy back ground; moves on with "Trav’lm Light,” and then taperc off with the two haunting melodics for which she was long famous, "The Man 1 Love” and “All of Me," all on Side 1. She is heady and nostalgic on Side 2, with “You Go to my Head,” “Solitude" arid "Moonglovv,” end ing with the meaningful appeal. "Please Don't Talk About Me When I’m Gone.” Side 3, white highlighted by the sentimental tune, "What A Little Moonlgiht Can Do.” is a variation of Sides 1 and 2, but just as mean ingful.
