Eva had an amazing voice. I think most will agree Blues Alley is her swansong but I also like Imagine. Songbird is great too but is a greatest hits collection and you would duplicate a few songs you already have, probably still worth buying.
Just a thought
Over the past couple of years of reading threads here and learning more than one could in a lifetime by trial and error, (mostly error I suspect) I noticed Eva Cassidy, "Live at Blues Alley" is often referenced when one inquires about great female recordings. So today I go out and buy this CD, it about brought tears to my eyes. What beautiful voice. So I lookup her website to see what other music she has available and I find out she died. Why didn't someone tell me? Goddamn cancer! Now I do have tears in my eyes. Are all her recordings this good?
RIP,
