I really like her and her guitarist/s. I'll take a long shot and guess Kenny Burrell. Or, maybe Barney Kessel?

Barney Kessel recorded with Billie a LOT, maybe more than any other guitarist, but I’m not sure about that. He’s probably the one you hear the most in recordings with prominent guitars. Herb Ellis also is on a fair number of her recordings. I’m sure there are many others.

The musicians are very fluid. I guess one could look at what record company Holiday made the most recording for, since that may lead to some consistency as it relates to the musicians on those recordings.

From the Billie Holiday songs website:
Barney Kessel 1952 -1957 62 tracks
Freddie Green 1937-40, 1950-54 48 tracks

There's a great live concert with Jimmy Raney playing on it.
