After finishing the 1972 biopic Lady Sings the Blues -- in which she starred as Billie Holiday -- Ross went into the studio to record this set of standards. Shelved at the time and only recently discovered, Blue finds Ross cooing and cavorting through "Let's Do It," "I Loves Ya Porgy" and other gems. She doesn't have jazz chops -- her contrived Vegas-style exuberance ruins the up-tempo numbers -- but she does use her sleek, porcelain-smooth voice expertly on the ballads (particularly "You've Changed").
