Me too. Age 60 here. A couple of years ago stumbled on to her. No voice like her. Mesmerizing. Especially now finding out she sang a couple of the school house rock tunes when I was a kid! Adjectives and Number8.
I was 10 years old, sneakily staying up late to watch the 'grownup' late nite show. The Tonight Show with Jack Parr, and to this day I love Blossom Dearie.
one of my very favorite voices singing one of my very favorite standards (from "Oklahoma!") love the obscure reference to "Isinglass" and how "header' is rhymed with "Mead-er" !! Ker-PLOP! I am SUCH a dork - I will show myself out..
From early childhood in the early 70s, 4 - 8 years old, i had that puppy love crush on her voice alone whenever i heard her episodes of school house rock:) Listening to jazz today on spotify i finally got to know her name when i recognized her as the School House Rock crush from long ago! :) THANK YOU Blossom for all your contributions to our collective human experience.
was just watching an episode of King of the Hill and Bobby was listening to this lol. had to find it. i love it, this is so satisfying! should be in the playlist of New Vegas Radio
I expect a lot of people of my age (I was born in 1963) first heard Blossom Dearie on Saturday mornings cartoons singing Unpack Your Adjectives and (my favorite) Figure Eight on Schoolrock. ruclips.net/video/EvqrAwrAs1A/видео.html#ddg-play
For as long as I've been alive I've loved Blossom Dearie. She is truly a one off. Thanks for sharing this.
Why am I just discovering this for the first time in my life?
I wandered the same 😮
Same here, age 55 years old 😮

Truly one of the most unique and special talents we ever enjoyed. Her voice is like a warm hug.
Pure Talent. I love the drums with the brushes....
Badass! From a time we’ll never see again.
Indeed … what a lovely performer … I was born the year this was happening
Play this when driviing and not in a hurry and love it Thanks ..
Remarkable jazz artist! Her subtle performance is beyond comparison. Adorable voice and her piano is simply the absolute best.❤❤❤❤

Blossom Dearie, Bob Dorough, Dave Frishberg , Becky Kilgor ❤❤❤
One of the most underrated jazz singers ever
Well, I'm entranced and transported, hypnotised and given porterage to sleep Villeneuve, back a century or so, thankyou for the show and the ride.
When I was a teenager, she was on TV often. I didn't get her then...but now...she's GREAT
She really suits her hair like that...Jean Seberg like
I totally love this version performed on this show. A truly beautiful talent is Blossom Dearie.

Hey, I got that LP! It's fun-tastic
It’s back!
What a delight!!!
Thanks a million for the repost ! Hidden and precious gem ☆
Love this because it feels so surprising even after many hearings
She unpacked her adjectives on school house rock!!
Her singing the figure eight song for school house rock was so haunting, and I love how it wasn't a "kiddie" song but very adult.
Thank you for posting 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Epitomized the term "hip & cool". A total original and totally the sh!t.
😊
Cannonball adderlly still best version imho
I think Miles Davis would dig this
John Lennon loved her, too.
Miles recorded this tune as well
Is there a full episode of this?

Not her song.
As far as I'm concerned after this reinvention of the Rodgers and Hammerstein tune she owns it.
