A great recent woman singer - jazzboCR - 20-02-2015
Thanking Ron Weinstock's blog for this one: Lori Williams has articulation and soul to the bone--an excellent combination. His short take: http://inabluemood.blogspot.com/2012/02/lori-williams-at-mid-atlantic-jazz.html Here's her bio on her Site--go directly to the last big paragraph--only a strong hint to to how much she has helped the D.C. youth music community--she has helped hundreds find an alternative to the 'Hoods "biz as usual".
Some songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2HETPlhCKU << Who amongst us hasn't asked this question? << Can't stop staring at her kneecaps. RECOMMEND: closed wrap.

Again, great stuff Jazzy! I especially enjoyed the duo with jazz guitar, so minimalistic yet effective, loved it!

All y'alls delight is my reward. and that clip shows how little you need to make effective, emotional music--isn't that the point? Scaling up notwithstanding...
