I agree, I love the Venetian Snares version, that whole record is really good.

I remember seeing a youtube video of that performance of “Fine and Mellow.” Presumably it’s still there. Ah, what the hell…just a moment…Jeepers, there’s like half a dozen videos of it posted! Check and see!

well. true. It was my speculation. It'll be interesting how much information I can find about Kahlo and Billie around late 30's on the net. (short clip, commentary about Kahlo in the US. in spanish.) slide show. I think the pictures are chronological.
