Eva Cassidy


Two words, buy it. Anything you can find by this unknown, gifted singer. It's a crying shame that this talented lady passed away so young (33). Her music (mostly covers of other singers) is filled with so much heart.Words can't describe.

Philefreak:

Agree totally and 110%. All proceeds from the sale of her CD's goes toward a foundation in her name doing cancer research. Don't forget to order "The Other Side" which is a duo CD with Eva and Chuck Brown.

What a wonderful voice, coming from a person who enjoyed very simple things, and had to be coaxed on the stage, she made little of her talent that was lost to us way sooner than it should have been.

Philefreak; I agree with you and Beemer. I now have all of her CDs, but the one that got me started was "Live at Blues Alley", and remains my favorite.

I had a thread not too long ago called something like "Music Finds for the Month", and my "finds" were Eva Cassidy and Holly Cole. There were quite a few members who commented on Eva Cassidy especially. Craig
She was truely gifted with a wonderful voice. It was amazing that she was able to fly under the radar screen for so long with her voice. Now people are finding out about her and her music after a People Magazine article.
