Modern day female jazz recommendations

I am curious. As a result of this post has anyone gone out and purchased any of the artists that were recommended here?

If so how would you rate the artist?

I bought Susie Arioli and Tracey Kent. They are both fantastic artists. Tracey has a warm sultry voice. Arioli also has great voice and some well-recorded live stuff.

Would that be Stacey Kent? One of my favorites. Incidently, Stacey is in NYC at Birdland June 2-6.

Anyone mention Norah Jones...great voice. Her first record, "Come away with me" is a tour de force by the recording studio. I also want to say how much Shirley Horn will be missed...Here's to Life... here's to Shirley....

Forgot to mention Carrol Kidd in last post here.I like a lot of Tracey Kent and her husband tenor man Jim Tomlinson usually backs her and she shows up on his CD's-very Prez/Zoot/Harry Allen line of as opposed to Webster/Hawkins lineage).Roberta Gambrini is fine Italian singer.But right now I think Dee Dee Bridgewater and Diane Reeves are the top singers.
