who is your favorite Female Vocalist?

Postby timber715 » Sat Apr 17, 2010 11:57 pm

lately I have been enjoying the sound of female sung music, can you add your favorites for me to look out for?
Jennifer Warnes, Kevyn Lettau, Vonda Sheppard, Angela Bofil and Basia are some I enjoy greatly, would appreciate if you can add your choices. btw, if you can add the titles of the songs they sing best would be great too.
Cheers

These two make up two thirds of my top three. An internet search about them led me to this link. I never knew the had even performed together on the same stage much less have a medley. We see two great artist already in advanced stages of the sicknesses that ultimately caused their leaving this world yet this performance showed how brightly they still shone inside.

A good starting point might be the Audiophile Voices series. I stopped the cd series after No, 5. They issued a Best LP featuring Eva Cassidy, Stacey Kent, Jane Monheit and a few others.
