O’s Notes: Singer Barbara Paris joins Joe Bonner on piano to celebrate the brighter days of Billie Holiday. Barbara’s voice is powerful yet gentle with the innocence of youth. It is well suited for this tribute. Bonner’s accompaniment is jovial and full. Together they make a strong, memorable session capped by an entertaining arrangement of “You Don’t Know What Love Is”.
