At this time my three favorite female vocalists are:
Diana Panton
Monica Salmaso
Sandy Stewart

@tyray Yes, she was a phenomenal singer. Marian Anderson was comparable as a Black spirituals singer (American folk) as well as an outstanding opera and classical recital singer. @whatjd I have 7 LPs and 11 CDs (some double LP sets) of June Christy. I guess she is second to Ella in my 50's-60's female jazz collection (Ella-17 LPs and 15 CDs). |
fleschler, Thanks for listing Marian Anderson, just an outstanding singer and as I remember, really no one else quite like her. |
Likely not for everyone or even on this list, but I do find "Somewhere In The Stars" by Rosanne Cash an enjoyable CD. Worth a listen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DK4zBdh97kU |
