2006 BEST Female Vocal CD/SACD/XRCD


I love music, especially female vocal. Maybe you guys listen to lots of CD last year, if you only pick 1 female vocal CD last year? What will that be? Actually, the CD does not have to be released in 2006, but please pick the one you heard and found in 2006.

Here is my choice:

Bander, you're right about Vienna Teng. I saw her live in Charlotte (she opened for Mindy Smith) and she was both a fine singer and pianist. The great thing about that experience was she played in an acoustically restored movie theater so the audience was small and the sound terrific.
My new favorite female singer is Nancy LaMott. A night club singer who died recently at 43. Her cd is My Foolish Heart with emotionally charged renderings of many songs from the great American songbook. The song "The Best is Yet to Come" is one of the most provocative songs ever. The whole cd is intense, emotional, and somewhat sad, but well recorded and well sung.
