      What a voice! And her voice held up well through the years, I think.

      I was listening to Cassandra Wilson and Diana Krall the other day. I'm glad the younger generations have made an effort to uphold the female jazz vocalist standards through the years :)

    It's amazing how she changed over time. I admit this is not my kind of music, but I would never turn away from it just because it wasn't my style. She had a good voice, that's for sure.

      Ah, time has a way of changing us, doesn't it, but her voice held up :) I love vocal jazz and blues.

      Looking at her across the decades is interesting. Some things change, but she's got that "sassy" spark :)

    She sure had a good voice! I'd heard her before but hadn't heard anything by her in a long long time. Thanks. Happy Thursday!

      Finding a regular source of music like this can be hard. Radio and LPs used to populate my musical life. Times do change lol
