The Delta compilation Jazz Masters includes ten tracks of Billie Holiday at her best, but a disc needs far more than that (as well as liner notes, session details, and top-drawer sound) to rate highly in her discography. The material present comes from her Decca period during the late '30s and early '40s, including the two songs she's most identified with, "God Bless the Child" and "Strange Fruit." Two other career highlights are in attendance, "Lover Man" and "Billie's Blues." ~ John Bush, Rovi
