BILLIE HOLIDAY - Sings

AMERICAN RECORDING SOCIETY (ARS G-409)

ARS was a record club/subscription service back in the 1950's They re-issued many of the Norman Granz label recordings among them Verve and Clef. This is specifically a re-issue of Billie's Clef 713 LP also from 1956. There are some track variations, which you can compare the two by CLICKING HERE, as I also have the Clef 713 LP listed. A rare one to find of Billie, complete with Pamphlet, see pictures above.

CONDITION:

COVER: These were not issued with cardboard covers, this one comes in its original plastic sleeve as pictured above which has some light tears along top.

PAMPHLET: Near Mint

VINYL: Record in nice VG+ condition with ultra light surface marks, I play-graded a few tracks and it sounds clean, has great fidelity as these A.R.S. pressings were known to have. Check audio sample above of Gone With The Wind, a track no included in the original Clef 713 Velvet Mood LP.  From a well cared for private collection.
