BEST FEMALE VOCAL EVER


HELLO TO ALL...

I've started a BEST MALE VOCAL seperately - if you want to contribute to that, please go that discussion...

I personally think the BEST FEMALE is so much harder than the Best Male, and I already have so many names in mind that I thought I'd wait and see others suggestions.

SO PLEASE OFFER YOU HUMBLE OPINION - BUT PLEASE, offer only one.

THANKS to all who cotribute...

I could never pick a best. I am too capricious and the choices are too many and too great. Two that I've been fascinated with lately:

Timi Yuro. I never heard of her until a few weeks ago and I think someone in the radio industry needs to be punished for that! She's just majestic.

Eileen Rose may be as sexy as Dusty Springfield.

What, no Kate Bush fans here? Great British singer with a nice series of recordings over the past 40 years! Start with "The Kick Inside" (1978) and on from there!

I really marvel at the range and power of Christina Aguilera, although the style/genre she chooses to engage in does nothing for me. Would be nice to hear her in a jazz trio, or quartet setting.

Holly Cole

Anne Wilson (early years)

Vanessa Fernandez

Grace Slick

Rebecca Pidgeon - Spanish Harlem, Patricia Barber, Holly Cole, Aimee Mann, Madeleine Peyroux, Nina Simone and Christy Baron.
