I enjoy Dinah Krall, Norah Jones and even Renee Olstead. Any others like these that I should give a listen to? Ella Fitzgerald when in her mellow songs are lovely, but I am so NOT a fan of scat singing!

You've just made a new Norah Jones fan!  WOW!  Have to listen to the other ladies now.

Keep this thread going!

Michelle, I am happy to have your find a new-to-you artist. This is exactly what I hope to accomplish with this thread. Maybe Forums activity will pick up if we find ways to make it work for us better.

I agree.  I've just happily rec'd Norah's "Come Away with Me" album, and am looking for more in that vein, by either male or female vocalists.  Lovely!

Michelle you may want to check out Peggy Lee and Linda Rondstadt (Round Midnight) too. Chris Isaak is also good. I found an AT&T promotional cd featuring a concert with several ladies doing mostly 'standards'. Stevie Nicks did a smokin' version of At Last! Wish she would sing more like that. Renee Olstead has only one album that I know of and would love to hear more from her. Sting has a few in this line, but you have to dig thru all his other stuff to find it.

Took some looking - the AT&T album is called Stormy Weather and I see its still on my CD Tower. Thought it already got scooped up - guess its just an odd title or not categoried easily.
