I owe the late Emmitt Powell, host of the KPFH Saturday morning Gospel Experience for introducing me to the incredible talent of Eva. He was clearly enamored of her voice. It was back in 2000, and I had no idea who Eva Cassidy was. Not only did a quick search inform me that she was a white gal from the Baltimore area, but to my great dismay, she had passed away 4 years earlier. I was never going to see her 'live'. Subsequently, I bought every recording I could get my hands on. I'm grateful that, though Eva was reticent about being recorded or filmed, that newly found and refurbished footage of her at her favorite 'hang' at Blues Alley in Georgetown is now available to watch. For a 'live' Blues music fan like me, that'll have to do. 🎶😎 Note: If you're really into Eva, look for a 1992 album of duets she recorded with Chuck Brown called 'The Other Side'. ☆☆☆☆
I've got all four versions of "Wade in the Water" by Eva, and this one, recorded at the Maryland Inn’s “King of France Tavern” in 1995, is by far the most superior!!! Eva's improvising vocals are phenomenal. Keith Grimes guitar lead is more advanced than usual and Bruno Nasta's violin adds another interesting dimension to this version. All in all, I can tell Eva's ever exploring vocal skills are more advanced in this recording, and I can't imagine the skill level she would have reached had she had a long career.
Miss Eva so much she still lives on with her lovely voice. This version of “Wade In The Water “ is amazing 😻!! Rest In Peace ☮️🧚🏿little angel 😇 xx 3:37
Beautiful the way Eva sings Fields of Gold, and Over the Rainbow 🌈, beautiful voice, beautiful Eva, missed forever, but your voice will live on indefinitely... Sleep well .xx
i just ordered most of her cd’s, for my hubby to give to me on Christmas. she is beyond amazing! made me sick when i heard she had died so long ago of cancer. cancer sucks, i know this first hand. 😢
I know the instrumental sections are part of the song, but it means we don't hear Evas stunning voice 🤣 It's always good to hear Eva on the radio, her singing always makes me smile. Pure quality.
She will always be my favorite singer. The quality of her voice is absolutely outstanding. ❤
The best
Amen 🙏 ❤
I don't know who is posting these videos, but I want to thank you for your dedication.

I’m grateful that we have these recordings of Eva. As long as we can hear her we can still connect

I think she was the greatest singer the world has ever seen. There is no competition.
The most soulful voice ever
