Sinatra. He slipped from speech to song without stopping to arrange himself into the posture of a singer. That's how he made songs make sense. He was the best at that. As far as hanging out, there is no one I would rather hang out with than Sinatra, especially during the rat pack days.
Yep. It’s like he was talking to you.
I would love to have seen both Billie Holiday and Maria Callas.
Two very different vocalists, of course. But they both speak straight to your heart, which is the whole point.
Callas just amazes me in that she made opera singing so , I dunno, like an intimate conversation.
Others may be more consistent technically but she just tears me up.
Coltrane would do for now, but Bill Evans, Duke Ellington's band and the Mamas and the Papas are also missed.
