Who are your three favorite female singers?

Had to go back and double check. Still can hardly believe it. Well this site is what it is I guess.

Only MC is capable of criticizing people's subjective taste in musical preferences.  

Dolores O’Riordan
Billie Holiday
Alison Krauss

Famous Blue Raincoat is, perhaps, my most played album and CD since its release.  The songs of Leonard Cohen.  

I have been lucky enough to have friends and relatives that bought the album/cd and now it is one of their favorites. 

Well recorded enough to be a good "test" piece for evaluating components.....but simply well written songs done in superb fashion. 

Heather Masse
Alison Krauss
Rhiannon Giddens
Margo T
Eva
Linda R
Patti Griffin
Sandy Denny
Tata
Astrud of course
