Best female vocals on CD

If you haven't heard Haley Westenra from New Zeland you are in for a really treat. At 23 years old she is mature beyond belief. If you saw Bocelli's Tuscany concert--she was there singing. She has sung before the Queen Elizabeth and the Dali Lama. Russell Watson call her voice one an angel. Her "Pure" cd is a good place to start.

Origa-"Shine my star" and Susana Pena - Vuelo Libre cd

If you love Female Jazz Vocals check out Lorraine Feather. www.lorrainefeather.com She has a new album out called Ages, with great reviews, which I haven't heard yet. My favorite so far is her album called Dooji Wooji. Lorraine has an amazing way with lyrics and knows how to turn a phrase. Her voice is powerful and extremely beautiful voice. Just an amazing talent. I highly recommend her to anyone who really loves female jazz vocals.

Ella Fitzgerald-All time greatest. Anita O'Day. Sarah Vaughn. Deborah Voigt. Dame Joan Sutherland. Maria Callas. Leontyne Price.

All good choices Craig...though of these Ella is my favorite, followed by Sassy Sarah.
A newer one to look into is Melody Gardot, I've mentioned her on A'Gon before...let us know what you think.
