Modern day female jazz recommendations

Forgot to mention Carrol Kidd in last post here.I like a lot of Tracey Kent and her husband tenor man Jim Tomlinson usually backs her and she shows up on his CD's-very Prez/Zoot/Harry Allen line of as opposed to Webster/Hawkins lineage).Roberta Gambrini is fine Italian singer.But right now I think Dee Dee Bridgewater and Diane Reeves are the top singers.

Same comment again - it is Stacey Kent, not Tracey Kent. Agree - Stacey and Jim are a geat combo.

Valerie Joyce - "New York Blue"....Incredible!

Also, check out Sara K

Kevyn Lettau, Melody Gardot, Eleni Mandell, Robin McKelle, and Kate McGarry to add to what has already been mentioned.

And now for the change-up, Ingrid Lucia and the Flying Neutrinos' "Hotel Child". You will love this cd. Trust me.
