Name an artist that had a great debut album and a great final album

I apologize to Jussi Bjorling for sure, one of the greatest singer that ever been...

He will excuse me to put a woman first....

😊

Eva Cassidy, for sure.

I think all of Eva Cassidy's music was released after her untimely passing. I sometimes wonder if she would have been a contestant on "The Voice" if it had existed back then.

I agree with Eva Cassidy. Her first two disks including my favorite - Live at Blues Alley - were released before her death at the end of 1996. Some of her most recent posthumous discs have not been so great.

I would also suggest Leonard Cohen.

Since today is LvB 250 th Birthday it is only right to play some of his work seldom heard .

Beethoven respected Schubert , I think he would like to hear some of his his music sung by the greatest tenor in at least the last 150 years !

mahgister, I will grant that Callas is a matter of taste , but stand fast that Pavarotti is above Anderson in voice.
I never doubted she was a better person than either , but that is up to God .

This is one of the best recording's ever made .Jussi and his Met buddy .
