Modern day female jazz recommendations

I've been obsessing over Kelly Flint of Dave's True Story for a while now. Although I sampled her latest, without Dave, and find it very boring. Funny how that happens sometimes, like with Keely Smith. I find her extraordinary with Louis Prima, but boring without. Anyway, any three of these finds Kelly at her best, IMO:
"Dave's True Story";
"Sex Without Bodies"; and
"Nature".

Shirley Horne - "Here's to Life", heavy rotation here

Rickie Lee Jones...
Check out the new RLJ release if you haven't already. Called "It's Like This" - an Incredible pressing from Analogue Productions.

Rosa Passos for some excellent, well recorded modern bossa nova. By the way, I checked out Madeleine Peyroux based on recommendations in this thread and absolutely love her singing.

I haven't seen anyone mention Sandy Sasso. She is great. Start with Mixed Grill. I have been using Tuxedo Junction for speaker auditions and have won her fans in the process. I suspect VMPS may be using that song to show off their speakers now. Another one you don't hear about too much about in recent years is Susanne McCorkle. She can be a bit quirky but a lot of fun. Dream is a good starting CD. Sophie Milman has a lot of potential, beautiful voice but she needs to develop more. Still, her Make Somebody Happy (I hope I remember that right) is very pretty and is well worth a listen, if only for Rocket Love. Holly Cole, especially her new solo album, Cheryle Bentyne is fun.
