Holiday, Billie. (1915-1959)

"Fine and Mellow" - Original Sheet Music

New York: Edward B. Marks. 1940. First. Rare original sheet music to the legendary vocalist's song "Fine and Mellow," featuring an graphically striking cover design with an inset photograph of Billie, advertising the work "As Inimitably Sung by Billie Holiday." In fine condition.

"Fine and Mellow" was first recorded by Holiday for Commodore in 1939, but was most famously performed in the 1957 TV special "The Sound of Jazz" with a line-up of other jazz legends including Lester Young, Coleman Hawkins and Roy Eldridge. (14915)
