Pryso, Julie London the sexiest, and Nancy Wilson the most romantic; two different things, no conflict.

Nancy Wilson is the most "popular" jazz vocalist I can think of, her voice is definitely the most romantic.

Frogman, my collection is full of Grover; even the pictures of him on the cover of his LP’s are highly significant; his dress was the casual epitome of style for whatever time they appear, and similar articles of clothing could be found in my own ...

My request to specify music to reflect today's society was not, nor did I intend it to be music specific.Since I see and analyze this society from the top to the bottom under a magnifying glass, I see it like it is; the top could care less about t...
