5 out of 5 stars Even better than the originals!.......2005-08-25

This album has a special place in my heart. My Dad had the original 1959 album and while a starving college student, I sold it for $30. I was glad to learn it was finally on Cd, but alas only in Europe due to legal reasons in America. Thank goodness for Amazon!

Bascially, Sam Cooke does Billie Holiday here, in a tribute album recorded shortly after her death. I've never been fond of Billie's voice, so to me Sam improves on the originals. The versions of "God Bless the Child," "Taint Nobody's Business," "Let's call the Whole thing off," and "Good Morning Heartache" cross the lines between jazz and what would later be called Soul. In fact, this is one of those album/cds that you could listen all the way through without wanting to skip a single song. So with that said, get it while you can.
