Diana Krall, Norah Jones, Jane Monheit....?

Well, within the last 6 months I've found that I have a love for female Jazz singers. It started with Diana Krall and then Norah Jones and as of the last couple of weeks, Jane Monheit. Any recommendations on other great female jazz singers? How about male jazz artists?

It's always fun to explore a new genre and I love what I hear so far. :-)

Eva Cassidy is just amazing - try all of her CD's. Her rendition of "Over the Rainbow" on her CD Songbird will bring tears to you eyes.

Grab Steve Tyrell's CD titled "Standard Time". Track # 5 has a great duet of Steve Tryell with Jane Monheit, "Baby Its Cold Outside" that will knock you out. The rest of the Tyrell CD is a treat (every song).
.
Try Etta James CD titled "Love Songs". Tracks 1,2 & 8 are great songs from an enormously talented singer.

She'd be horrified to be mentioned in the same breath as the three above, but Patricia Barber is a true great, in my view.
