French Female Vocalist Jazz Blues Suggestions ???

Oops. Sbank is correct - Madeleine Peyroux is American, not French-Canadian.

For Pop, don't pass up Lara Fabian. She truly is excellent, and so too are many of the recordings.

She has offerings in 3 other languages as well, including English. Lara is huge in Europe, and is deserving of the accolades. She's pretty easy on the eyes too.

In reference to my previous post, there is a better link to sample Lara's music. The link will direct you to 13 videos from a PBS special, and require Windows Media Player software. There are selections in English, Italian, French, and I believe one is Spanish. I am especially fond of "Adagio". Anyhow, I hope these are to your liking.

Here's the link:
