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.

Some great offerings here…

Try: Youn Sun Nah - Shenandoah ; Album = On Voyage.

Spectacular recording on a highly resolving system…

Many great suggestions!!

Eva Cassidy was mentioned previously. Check out her Songbird/ Live at Blues Alley.  Great combo of power & grace w/ a great band behind & excellent live recording. Some harder blues / rock & some beautiful solo ballads w/ just acoustic guitar.
