All of the great artists stand on the shoulders of the giants who came before. The guitar player clearly knows how to listen to the awesome ones of the past. The singer’s light voice is delicate and one I treasure listening to. Of course, she is not Ella. By the way, compare “early” Ella to her later years, and watch how an artist develops over time. Don’t discount someone who seems like a budding flower of awesome delight. In fact, I hear some Billie Holiday in her voice as well as Ella (who I did get to hear live, and even observed her incredible voice when I was in the concert hall catwalks far above the stage when she sang in 1980 in a hall where I worked).
Cyrille is right in the middle between Billie and Chet, delicate lemon sprinkes on a velvety apple pie. Oui, mais pour la tarte aux pommes, deux ou trois goldens, un p'tit verre de rhum, un bâton de cannelle...
Excellent, comme toujours. Mais, si je peux, je préfère largement les sanborn sessions ou emmet’s place, dans lesquels vous êtes des lieux au dessus de tous et toutes. Avis personnel, ce qui n’enlève rien au talent exceptionnel que vous avez. Les aspirations des fans n’etant pas forcément celles des artistes…je verrai la suite. Vous êtes remarquable et vos choix n’appartiennent qu’à vous, pas de soucis. Juste un avis. Best Cyrille
