Looking for good recordings of female vocals I have not yet tried...


Most of my listeing is female vocals and classic Jazz.  I have enjoyed current and older female singers.  I have most of Billie Holiday through current Diana Krall and Julia Fordham.  I enjoy good voices mainly acoustic.  It would be helpful if it is music I can sample online.  If the backing is mainly loud elctronic I would likely pass.  Thanks for your thoughts and experience.

In my book.......Dominque Fils Ami    and # 1 Karen Souza....for best recordings and Enjoyable songs. Try "Creep" from her "Essentials" album.

I assume Amy Winehouse has been mentioned…when she first hit it big, I had so much hope…truly knocked out…what a sad story she was…anywho…the music still lives…

+1 on Alison Krauss; in my opinion, the sweetest voice on Earth

While not solo, Voces8 have the best human voice performances and recordings I know of, and their soprano, Andrea Haines, must be heard to be believed.  

Enjoy.
