Possessing one of the greatest jazz voices of all time; a breathy, husky whisper that promised and seduced the listener, before dancing away again with a glance over her shoulder. Much of Billie's vocal delivery style was hammered out as she sang live in smoky nightclubs, and relied on her ability to improvise. She rose through the ranks of jazz singers during the swing era until she was collaborating with greats like Count Basie. The tracklist of 'Body and Soul' is a mixture of well-known standards and comparative obscurities 'Comes Love', 'They Can't Take That Away From Me', 'Darn That Dream' and 'Moonlight in Vermont' to name but a few.
