Here's one of the finest, mellowest examples of soulful jazz blues I've ever seen.
Billie Holiday is speaking about the blues at the beginning:
"The blues, to me, is like, being very sad, very sick...or in the church, being very happy. There's two kinds of blues: there's happy blues, and there's sad blues. I don't think I ever sing the same way twice. I don't think I ever sing the same tempo. One night, it's a little bit slow, the next night, it's a little bit brighter- it's according to how I feel. I don't know- the blues is sort of a mixed-up thing. You just have to feel it. Anything I do sing, it's part of my life."
The soloists, in order, are:
1 Ben Webster on tenor sax
2 Lester Young on tenor
3 Vic Dickenson on trombone
4 Gerry Mulligan on baritone
5 Coleman Hawkins on tenor
6 Ray Eldridge on trumpet

Under democracy one party always devotes its chief energies to trying to prove that the other party is unfit to rule - and both commonly succeed, and are right.
Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.
