Download or read book Lady Sings the Blues written by Billie Holiday and published by Crown. This book was released on 2006-07-25 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perfect for fans of The United States vs. Billie Holiday, this is the fiercely honest, no-holds-barred memoir of the legendary jazz, swing, and standards singing sensation—a fiftieth-anniversary edition updated with stunning new photos, a revised discography, and an insightful foreword by music writer David Ritz Taking the reader on a fast-moving journey from Billie Holiday’s rough-and-tumble Baltimore childhood (where she ran errands at a whorehouse in exchange for the chance to listen to Louis Armstrong and Bessie Smith albums), to her emergence on Harlem’s club scene, to sold-out performances with the Count Basie Orchestra and with Artie Shaw and his band, this revelatory memoir is notable for its trenchant observations on the racism that darkened Billie’s life and the heroin addiction that ended it too soon. We are with her during the mesmerizing debut of “Strange Fruit”; with her as she rubs shoulders with the biggest movie stars and musicians of the day (Bob Hope, Lana Turner, Clark Gable, Benny Goodman, Lester Young, Coleman Hawkins, and more); and with her through the scrapes with Jim Crow, spats with Sarah Vaughan, ignominious jailings, and tragic decline. All of this is told in Holiday’s tart, streetwise style and hip patois that makes it read as if it were written yesterday.

Book excerpt: In each of these original Boo and Baby stories from the author of The Cowboy's Baby and Talking To The Dead Guys, something always goes wrong. These tales introduce you to two of the quirkiest animals that Texas has ever seen. There's singing involved here somewhere. It says so right in the title. You're going to enjoy their screwball adventures, and you're going to laugh. From Boo-Hoo Who! The sound of a vehicle door opening was like opium to their dog Boo. Police car, garbage truck, animal control van, serial killer in a stolen pickup, it made no difference to Boo. She'd jump in with anyone "Name's Corey Smith," the serial killer said, introducing himself with a smile aimed over Boo's back straight at Flannery Sommers. And from Deja Boo All Over Again. The Friday night preview feature of the local comic-con wasn't worth the gasoline it took to bring them there. Until Baby arrived. They had Baby in a muzzle contraption and were escorting him down the hall toward the fountain as if he were Hannibal Lecter. Olive could tell the exact moment Baby saw Boo by the gasp of the crowd. Then by the bull's bellow. Baby bellowed like the bull he was. Boo bayed like the wolf she wasn't.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It Ain't Over Until The Fat Lady Sings describes how Martin Noordhof's boss's supervisor decides to get rid of Martin's boss, and replaces her with a creature that has no management skills and not the foggiest idea about the work that he does, but at the same time has no inhibitions about telling him how to do his job. His new boss has Narcissistic Personality Disorder, and Martin, a senior administrator at a large municipal university, finds out that being in a subordinate position to such a person is torture. The creature demands the immediate execution of every instruction, no matter how insane and damaging to the operation Martin is responsible for, and everything that goes wrong as a result of its orders is Martin's fault, because the creature considers itself infallible. The book tells the story of how Martin's battle with his new boss results in the end of both of their careers.
