Chuck Nessa Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 I haven't seen any mention of her death here. Quote
jeffcrom Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) Well, damn. Chuck's post was the first I had heard this, but unfortunately, it's true. Here's the news from an English-language Swedish news site. I was enchanted by Babs from the first time I heard "Heaven" from Ellington's Second Sacred Concert. A truly amazing voice.

Clunky Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 i know her name handful but other than a handful of sides with Lars Gullin, she's a known unknown for me. Quote
Stereojack Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 A tremendous talent. I love her album with Duke - "Serenade to Sweden", never issued in the US to my knowledge. Quote
jazzbo Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 Yes, that one is great. Maybe it will come out now. I have a few others of hers, she always is worth hearing. Quote
