Best female vocals on CD

Here's a new one that I just picked up. Dolora Zaijick "The Art of the Dramatic Mezzo-Soprano. On the Telarc label. She is a classical singer with an outstanding voice. Still really don't know who she is, but she sure can sing.

I have a classical sampler with introductions by Sandra King (of NPR.) Her voice makes me weak in the knees. Does this count?

I agree with the person who spoke of Rachelle Ferrell's 1st instrument cd. Great voice,good songs, well recorded. Pat Barber is good when she doesn't sound like she's on the verge of falling asleep,[which is most of the time].

Hey what about the opera Diva's? I like Renee Fleming, WOW what a voice she has!

So meny, Holly Cole,Diana Krall,Patricia Barber,Jean Armatrading, K.D. Lang. The list is endless!
