You are forgiven Margaret, re Mikes link did you notice the big men, I thought it was a modern condition KFC McDonald's etc I rather like the lady trombone player.

Haveing just listened to Joni Mitchell playing alongside Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays I am going to add her name here. And I beleieve some of her singing here would also qualify her for the jazz canary thread

A bit tame Mat, ...

Hi Mat,
What a wonderful introduction to a singer/pianist who amazingly i hadn't heard of.
you have sent me off on a frenzied search of Youtube, Spotify and Amazon to find her work
and find what I can quickly buy/download. WOW!
I obviously dont subscribe to Colin's viewpoint.

[JHC]

I find her singing weak but her playing was average it is more in the style of a night club performance than Jazz, I am sorry Mat but that’s my opinion for what it is worth. On a rating of 10 I would give it 5 but I would not buy it.

[Mat]

Colin, "to each their own", as the proverb goes.

John, glad you like her that much! Let me know how the album hunting went.

[OLDUDE]

Mat, Check my post on the other thread - "jazz from around the world" or whatever it is

[OLDUDE]

Checking out on jazz saxists, i saw the name Tina Brooks and thought - "thats one for the female jazz player thread.
OOPS!

Only just found this Mat. Liked it. Also listened to Take The A Train, which proved to me that she can really bang it out as well. She is now on my list
