patricia barber - diana krall - holly cole

wouldnt that be awesome if they - toured together - tell me it wouldnt be sold out every night they played. 

No thanks.

Being an audiophile - and attending shows/auditioning gear at dealers - completely turned me off that triumvirate of singers. 

I never need to hear them again.  I finally got out of listening to audiophile-approved music "because it is so well recorded" and just listen to music I like.

@prof

I completely agree. Not a one of them is interesting to me. Eva Cassidy, obviously not available to hear live, covers songs with more complexity. Krall’s vocal range leaves a lot to be desired. Meh! No thanks.

@2psyop "I don’t understand the negative comments." The OP tossed out a suggestion, implying a request for others opinions. Opinions were given. Why not question the positive replies too?

I don't disparage those three singers/musicians at all.  They are all talented.

Nor would I disparage anyone who enjoys their music!  Not at all!

I just grew out of listening to music based on it's audiophile cred and more because it made my system sound good.  I had to admit to myself I just don't friggin' care for their music.  I'd never play it for actual enjoyment outside listening to it on a high end rig to hear a 'good recording.'   (Though I do like some Holy Cole).

Imagine the concerts that Eva Cassidy is putting on in heaven.

DK, gross.
