Well.. I need new music!?

I would love to get into more old 20's and 30's female and male standards singers. Connie Francis (although she came later) is a favorite, as well as a few Billie Holiday songs. I want the good stuff though! Help me find new music!

Naturally you'd know about Ella Fitzgerald, but have a look at Sarah Vaughn, Dinah Washington, you want to go back to the 20's try looking for some Paul whiteman, along those lines, have a look for some Jo stafford, or maybe some nina simone, all are great. as a last thought lena horn, and Rose Murphy might interest you too, some of these are likely to be hard to find, but worth the search

Check out Herbie Hancocks "Possibilities"
He does stuff with John Mayer, and a irish
couple who do a "Holliday" song that will tear
you up

try Amy Winehouse. She's got this cool style. She's kinda new though. Give her a chance. Listen to "Back to Black"

P.S. i just realized our avatars look alike. can it be.. are we long lost twins??? GASP!

i always answer questions like this the same way- go to www.pandora.com
its free
type in the name of the artist you want to listen to, and it will play songs by that artist and other very similar artists. i have found so much great jazz and other stuff on there!

this is a man but louis prima is the best!!
