More female vocals


I am looking for some good female vocalist. I really like Etta James, Whintey Houston.
So, what other female jazz and blues singers can I look for.
As I am getting older my taste in music is changing.

Thanks Brian

Make sure you sample before you buy. Some artist will make a great LP then an average one. But I can't remember
Shirley Horn making a bad album ever.

There are many many more. Dee Dee Bridgewater will amaze you. Live in several places.

Happy hunting.
Not jazz but you have to check out Eva Cassidy.
