On this day 70 years ago Billie Holiday died

Blood on the leaves and blood at the root

Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees”#BillieHoliday #AbelMeeropol #JoshWhite #BobbieGentry #DianaRoss #UB40 #Sting #SiouxsieandtheBanshees #JeffBuckley #WyntonMarsalis #BethHart #JoeBonamassa #MollyJohnson #AnnieLennox #MariettaSimpson

Musical Interlude: Listened to this randomly today; this is a classic from my youth and it holds up remarkably well. She sometimes did lament that people obsessed over why he did what he did, and what they threw....in her mind, the real thrust of the song was the family's indifference to her obvious shock.
"Ode to Billy Joe," performed by Bobbie Gentry.

BOBBIE GENTRY
Ode To Billy Joe
1967 Germany pressingOne of my all-time comfort records.
The childhood memories that come flooding back as soon as “Mississippi Delta” kicks in are crazy.This was one of those albums that a few of my uncles adored, so wherever I was over there (which was a lot), I heard it.
These songs were tattooed on my brain from a very early age, and I fell in love with them, too. I was mystified by Gentry’s voice. Simultaneously comforting, soulful AND powerful.
One of those records that is a warm reminder of a much simpler time for your dear old friend Ape.
