There's no such thing as a genuine Billie Holiday greatest-hits collection–her career was split among too many labels for that–but this single-disc distillation of the Complete Decca Recordings 2 CD set (recorded between 1944 and 1950) is pretty solid. Holiday's in fine vocal form (though her accompaniment is undistinguished easy-listening stuff; the choir on "God Bless the Child" is a bit frustrating), and the songs are arranged to work as an album rather than chronologically. She transcends the ideas of torch songs, of blues, of ballad singing–her version of "Lover Man" exemplifies erotic despair, tormented and aroused at once–and even the lesser-known tracks here are pleasant surprises, like a Leonard Bernstein song.
