Love her.  One of my favorite vocal records:

[jazzbo]

John Coltrane "Coltrane '58: The Prestige Recordings" Craft/Concord 5 cd set, disc 5

[Rabshakeh]

Freddie Hubbard – Blue Spirits (Blue Note, 1967)

 

[HutchFan]

Now playing:

(jazz guitarist) James Brown - Song within the Story (NGP, 2022)

 

[HutchFan]

And next...

James Moody - Moody's Mood for Blues (Prestige/OJC)
Originally released as two LPs: James Moody's Moods and Moody

I love this music, but I will say this: There's just too much usage of the words "Moody" and "Moods."  It's confusing as hell -- and it reminds me of the way that Junior Cook continually released album titles that punned on his last name.  I'm not a fan of that.  O.K. do it maybe one time.  After that, cut it out.  Enough already. 

It's a pet peeve of mine.

Phew!  Dreadful.
