"Lady in Satin", Billie Holiday's penultimate studio album, is both revered and reviled by her fans. Recorded in February 1958, a mere 17 months before her death at the age of 44, it was said to be her personal favorite. These historical recordings show that her voice was ravaged by hard times, alcohol and drugs. Yet, heartache always informed her art, and she delivers here with unequated poignancy twelve songs that she'd never recorded before.

We celebrate Billie's Holiday 100th birthday with this new and ultimate edition of "Lady In Satin", In addition to all of the original album tracks, all newly remixed and mastered in 24-Bit, the first CD is enhanced by the presence of three bonus tracks, including for the very first time a true stereophonic version of "The End Of A Love Affair"

With CDs 2 and 3 you will hear Billie Holiday approaching the album's three sessions with enthusiasm and matchless artistry. Her cheerful mood and willingness to give her best are the most enlightening revelations from these almost two hours of never before released complete outtakes. Watching Holiday learn and slowly master each song is a fascinating process. This is "Lady In Satin" complete, just as it happened in the studio. These tapes can only build our respect, understanding, and enjoyment of this often misunderstood album.可參考，再參考
