I’d also be happy to show you around my fine town. Right now, I’m listening to Van Morrison on the Tacoma jazz & blues station and looking south at the Olympic mountain range. The views are great here. That really would be cool. Looking out my window too but it's already here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the little mountains around here probably don’t compare with the ones in your backyard. The biggest one we can see is Mount Baker, 120 km/75 miles away in Washington State. It’s 11,000 feet high, and is visible most days, if it’s not raining. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KlipschFish Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I haven't seen all the responses so not sure if this is a repeat but 17 year old Billie Eillish has a phenomonal voice. 17 years old. 99% of my vinyl is older than her! Claire Martin also very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ult1mat3X Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Overall vocalist, I don't know, but I can certainly pick a favorite song/vocalist combo. Eva Cassidy's version of Over the Rainbow. Not a tough call for me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oicu812 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Candice Night. Great voice. Great... um... all around talent. She fronts the band Blackmore's Night, and is married to Ritchie Blackmore. Yeah, that Ritchie. Deep Purple. Rainbow. Smoke on the Water. He is even more phenomenal on guitar now, than when he was playing for Purple. They mostly do modern takes on Medieval / Renaissance music, with some covers thrown in for fun. The kind of music you can put on in the background and enjoy while working. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oicu812 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 A lot of singers can sound really good, in a studio setting where you record the same thing over and over, and assemble a song from the best bits. The real test is "Can you sing for an hour and half, and sound fantastic all the way through?". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sancho Panza Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 (edited) Caroline Jo-nes is pretty good, singing with the Coral Reefer Band; but, she's too screechy for my tastes. Easy on the eyes.

Chris A Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 While considering the alternatives to talking about vocal quality as a screening criterion (i.e., there are a lot of female vocalists that aren't what many might agree to possessing quality vocal characteristics), I instead just assembled a single page spreadsheet that arranges most noted non-classical female vocalists (sourced from Wikipedia) into three groups by vocal range: contralto, mezzo-soprano, and soprano. There are something like 700+ vocalists on this list, and if you click a link it will immediately take you to the corresponding Wikipedia page for that artist and/or group. I found it handy...so here you go: List of female singers in non-classical music.xlsx Chris 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oicu812 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Caught these incredible ladies on NPR. Harmonies tighter than any other group I've heard. Just fantastic.

Shiva Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Decent vocalist with Cassandra Wilson, though not the best rendition of this song. The bass line on this however, is first class and sounds fantastic on the Epic CF3's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
