      Sam's incredible on her own -- but what I love best is watching her play with other talented Instrumentalist Musicians!!!
      They way her voice syncopates with each musician - the pianist; then the bassist; then the drummer is so amazingly incredible!!!
      Can't get that experience using synthesizers!

    And she won the Grammy last night (to everyone's surprise) for Best New Artist. Finally after a loooong time...they recognize an artist who doesn't need lots of electronic help, dancers, nudity or bad language to make us watch. Just pure talent and class. Congrats Ms. Joy, hope you have a long and successful career!

Had thought we'd seen the last of great jazz-style singers, but here is a brand new one ! .. God, I feel I've been reborn, and life's worth living again !

    @UncleDuTheWatchman 10 месяцев назад +1

    First of all, I am at work and when you started singing I yelled out "Well SING IT then!" Your tone is everything! Now The thing with Ella's scat solos is that most of her recorded ones are based on bop instrumental solos (Flying Home for instance) where her ear was so phenomenal that she could transpose any intrumentation into vocalization in a way that when you heard her you forgot all about whose solo she's interpolating because it becomes HERS. Now live...I can't give you any clues for her live inpromptu scats...that was otherworldly.

She is a once in a generation talent and it is so wonderful to see a young singer carry this remarkable tradition forward while putting her stamp on it. She sang a number of songs that she wrote the lyrics of herself that were really lovely. She totally commands the stage and has both incredible range, timing and feel. Destined to have a huge career. Try and catch her live!
