This is an amazing TV performance from the 50s. It features Billie Holiday with some of the greatest jazz players of the day playing a nice melodic slow blues. Lester Young is playing the lead sax. Other performers featured on this video are, Coleman Hawkins, Ben Webster, Gerry Mulligan, Roy Eldridge, Doc Cheatham, Vic Dickenson, Danny Barker, Milt Hinton, and Mal Waldron.
