  3. NY Times obit. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/27/arts/music/chico-hamilton-a-california-cool-jazzman-dies-at-92.html?_r=0
  4. Rest in peace, Chico Hamilton
  5. Why should I ? Louis had a trio with Jacques Schols and Johnny Engels at that time. That's all... Though in1961 Louis won the famous Jazzconcours in Loosdrecht. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_van_Dijk & http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_van_Dijk
  6. Lovely that she uses the verse. Nice piano part too! The pianist is Louis van Dyke, Jacques Schols on bass (he recorded with Eric Dolphy too) and on drums Johnny Engels. My mom had only a few albums with female jazz singers . Some Billie, Ella, Sarah, Dinah, Carmen,Jeanne Lee, Cleo Laine, Peggy Lee (only one album), Rosemary Clooney, and Diana Krall. And some Rita Reys, Greetje Kauffeld, and Lils Mackintosh (she is the daughter of the singer Max Woiski jr. and granddaughter of musician Max Woiski sr.) Yes I know Lils Mackintosh. I visited one of her Masterclasses. Didn't dare to apply for it yet. I saw her live a few times too, together with Clous van Mechelen if you know him. I think Louis last name is Dijk instead of Dyke. Of course I know him too, didn't realize it was him playing. John Engels is my favourite national jazz drummer, still. I did saw Greetje Kauffeld perform too. Louis uses the name Van Dyke for international reasons. Check google. Lils often performs with Clous. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8MBbi7B4xQ BTW this is the best youtube of her....
  7. I didn't realize the Dutch accent was an advantage. My favourite drummer John Engels in the accompaniment! Lovely that she uses the verse. Nice piano part too! The pianist is Louis van Dyke, Jacques Schols on bass (he recorded with Eric Dolphy too) and on drums Johnny Engels. My mom had only a few albums with female jazz singers . Some Billie, Ella, Sarah, Dinah, Carmen,Jeanne Lee, Cleo Laine, Peggy Lee (only one album), Rosemary Clooney, and Diana Krall. And some Rita Reys, Greetje Kauffeld, and Lils Mackintosh (Lils is the daughter of the singer Max Woiski jr. and granddaughter of musician Max Woiski sr.)
  8. I like this one better... My mom had this album. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sj_nMmOTb_E
  9. Yes, she can swing and has an incredible jazz talent Shawnn performed with all the big names in jazz.
  10. Jeanne Lee had it... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijahFCUCS24 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XA-f3PP1zTE
  11. You're so right. There's only one Billie. I don't know, with all these young female jazz singers.... They miss the right feeling...
  12. And Dinah Washington, Carmen McRae, and others...
  13. Speaking of a warm voice... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDPZMYUXUZ0
  14. Oh no, not a female singer like Stacey Kent, Joanie Sommers or Blossom Dearie (grrrr) ...They don't have a jazz voice, IMHO. Try: Jeanne Lee, Melody Gardot, Lizz Wright, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Karin Krog.
  15. This above is so well known...I thought you asked for Abbey Lincoln's version, isn't it? At least a vocal interpretation. There's a Cassandra Wilson youtube too Sometimes a little google search can cause a miracle.
  16. I've posted this before...
  17. It's the same song, but....this song has originally been titled "Little Girl, I'll Miss You", and has been covered by several artists.
  18. I think it's: "Little One I'll Miss You". Composed by Bunky Green and Abbey Lincoln. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTuoIDuchc0
