Your choice in Lady Day's music is from perhaps her best period-between 1940-1950's. By the time she was signed to Verve, her storied life was nearing. It's no wonder how Billie and Ella sang beautifully, they both lived tough lives, which most of us can't imagine.
"When I was in LA, there was so much good jazz on the tuner that you could live without anything else; not so where I live, but if it was, a tube tuner would be the way to go."
Yes, I'm in SoCal. It's terribly expensive,overcrowded, driving is awful and I haven't got to the bad things yet....
Our Jazz and Classical stations arent what they used to be,but I enjoy them.
There was a time, one could own just a tuner and life was good.
Have you tried streaming some of these Jazz stations online? Seems to be popular for those who don't have radio access. I'm doubtful it compares with
Ella singing "Black Coffee" through a Marantz 10B, but I've read users say it's pretty good.
