CD Reviews

I hate to write a one-star review, but...

Johnny Boy | Hockessin, DE | 02/16/2008

(1 out of 5 stars)

"...the sound quality is just terrible. It's barely listenable. I don't usually have a problem with sound, just as long as it's not bad. I mean, despite it's low price, it's still awful. And as much as I love Billie Holiday, this CD does not do her any justice whatsoever.

This was just a cash cow to make money for Madacy. My advice: avoid this and pick up '20th Century Masters.' Her voice is great, and the sound quality is just superb. But stay far, far away from this one.

Not recommended."
