Favorite Female Artists

Based on my record collection, I'd have to say Janis Joplin, with Linda Ronstadt a close second.
 
Dave I tried to do this as a poll but fell asleep at the switch.For me it has to be Linda Ronstadt.

Dave there is a cd called Gram Parsons live '73 which features he and Emmy Lou.Gram as you know was a member of the Btyrds during the "Sweethearts of The Rodeo" Lp He was a genius musically who died of an overdose at the babyish age of 24

The cd is at www.mymusic.com search under Gram Parsons and Fallen Angels

Della Reese all the way. You Ella fans ever hear the live recording from Berlin, when she forgot the words to "Mack the Knife" and made up her own as she went along? Incredible. I have it around here somewhere.

yeah TA. I think that one is one a couple of albums. Hmmm...I think it may be on Pure Ella too. I'll have to check :scratch2:

Any recommendations on the Della Reese cd? got a favorite album?

thanks
 
Anything with the song "Don't You Know" on it.

I have a two-album cd of hers called "The Classic Della". It is a Castle Communications product. It's catalog number is PCD 10145. It also has BMG written on it so it might be available through Columbia House (or whatever it's called now). There is no shortage of good songs on it. Thanks for asking mon!

"And now Ella, and her fella,
Were makin' a wreck, a wreck of Mack the Knife!"

Hope you like it! The song "Don't You Know" knocks me out. Vic Damone had a hit with it in the 50's. The actual music is from a classical piece. The first time I ever heard the MUSIC, was in the 70's or 80's as the background music to a damn spaghetti sauce commercial. Haunting music, I always liked it. Then in the mid 90's, I was doing a gig as a radio station dj, at a station that only played 30's, 40's and 50's. That's where I stumbled on the Della Reese version.

If you can't find it I can get the wife to burn you a copy. Just ask.
