by
Dinah Washington
Dinah Washington could sing any song and make it sound like everybody's life depended on it. An awe-inspiring jazz vocalist with roots in the R&B scene of the 1940s, she gradually evolved into a pop star during the '50s and would have matured marvelously were it not for an accidental prescription drug overdose that took her out at the age of 39 on ...

Art Garfunkel
There is a strangeness that is nearly otherworldly in hearing Art Garfunkel -- half of one of the most enduring duo's in rock's history books -- singing pop standards. Garfunkel was primarily a harmony vocalist in his duo with Paul Simon, but it was that voice that added authority and excitement to their recordings. His own solo records have been ...

by
Barney Kessel/Shelly Manne/Ray Brown
If the picture of three grown men hanging onto giant, colored swirl sticks looks a bit odd, or if the title The Poll Winners seems a bit conceited, the music, nonetheless -- recorded in 1957 -- still sounds great in 2002. Besides, guitarist Barney Kessel, bassist Ray Brown, and drummer Shelly Manne really did win polls in Down Beat, Playboy, and ...

There have been a number of singing jazz pianists over the years, yet most have been stronger in one area or the other. Dena DeRose was a pianist first and took up singing only after a hand injury sidelined her from playing for a time. But she is the real deal, able to bring out the best in the music and lyrics to any given piece. Her snappy take ...
