Modern day female jazz recommendations
This might surprise a few people, but check out "Trav'lin' Light" by Queen Latifah. The lady can DEFINELY sing the traditional pop and RnB standards from the likes of Ella, Peggy Lee, Sarah Vaughn, ect. Matter of fact, I believe this CD is up for ... 
Give the new Kid Rock a shot.

Another Music Man Gone.
Shadorne, Thanks for the "heads up" on the PBS documentary of Ertegun and Atlantic Records. I'll have to check and see when it's airing. btw, have you ever seen the documentary on Tom Dowd? I believe it's title is "Tom Dowd and the Language of Mus...
