shadowhillway Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 Cyndi is the best!!! To me, she is the Miles of what she does. Long varied career, always doing something different, rooted in the blues, don't take shit from nobody on the outside but as human as anyone inside. Not to mention they're both native Noo Yawkers.

shadowhillway Posted April 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 John, this is for you! Five albums for $14.43: John: Assuming the three of the five are in fact new to you, there's something to like or love in each of them IMHO.

JSngry Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 Also a native Noo Yawker - Toshiko Akiyoshi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowhillway Posted April 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 For me "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" is like "So What", "Footprints", and "A Night in Tunisia". They're classics but I would be happy never to hear them again. Covers of "Tunisia" are the most egregious offenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
