Re: Great female vocalists
I certainly don't want to get caught up into a "who's best" contest, but this is a great clip of an early version of Stormy Weather by the great Ethel Waters:

Re: Great female vocalists
The few I will add
older Abby Lincoln Her version of Afro Blue is fantastic if you can find it. Joni Mitchell Carole King newer Jenny Lewis She is in the band Rilo Kiley. She also did a solo album and one with the Watson Twins. Her album with the Watson Twins has a Dusty Springfield feel to it. :tu Amy Millan with her solo stuff and with her band Stars. Maria Taylor another favorite female singer/soloist. *I know Emmylou Harris has been mention but I just wanted to add my favorite song of hers. When she was playing with Gram Parsons and did Love Hurts. IMHO it was the best version of the song hands down. ok, rant off |

Re: Great female vocalists
87 posts, and no one has mention the greatest female voice ever to make the angel's jealous. (IMHO, of course).
Gladys Knight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KX8fZ...eature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74ukt...eature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txf3A8-QAaw |
