Its so ironic how her life ended like the woman Billie Holiday she's singing about ;) She died at 48 around the the same age as Billie and from the same thing, heart and liver failure due to drug abuse
We all got a past might not be drugs or alcohol , some got killed for talking too much lieing on folks, some far less $4.00 in a robbery, people on earth will always go through something.
Como nunca la había escuchado! Nunca creí que alguien podría cantar una versión de Billie Holliday y hacerlo bien! Pues aquí está la prueba! Maravilloso

The first time I heard Esther Phillips sing this, it put me in a trance. I watched that VHS over and over. Love you Esther, RIP.
Esther Phillips at The Hollywood Bowl circa 1978, great evening a Billie Holiday tribute concert and clearly Esther in great form!
