Ignore the llittle children

Nina was next to Aretha Franklin, tha absolute Daddy of female gospel and R&B music.

Whitney Housten and Maria Carey sound like cowbells compared to then.

Loved her to bits

Strange Fruit, My baby just cares,Mississippi Goddam. etc etc etc. Total class. No one comes close.

Billie Holiday did. Summertime, These foolish things, They can't take that away, The very thought of you, Night and Day, the list goes on on and on. Simone was good but not a patch on Billie Holiday, imo.

 

[Gully]

Ella Fitzgerald, now there was an absolutely amazing singer.

A reputation for being 'difficult' but with a list like that she can be forgiven!

Billie Holliday, Nina Simone, Ella Fitzgerald, Mavis Staples, Aretha all phenomenal.
