It's a great song for late at night/ early in the morning.

And here's two great songs by Sade! I fell in love with her voice the minute I heard it!
Some might consider her "pop" but she's always been a jazz singer to me! Maybe pop/jazz fusion?

Not sure I'd classify her as jazz. Pop/Jazz/Fusion could work!

One thing I (don't) like about her singing is that she either "holds back" or doesn't inhale enough air to get certain notes out strongly enough.


I always perceived that as a conscious truncation.

Didn't someone once say that Jazz is silence carved up by the instruments?

Health,

Aswad, I imagine it would be conscious if it served to make the sound more pleasant to the ear.

Now, here's a sexy little black dress of a song that I'm sure you and the other Jazz lovers will like by Maysa!

Paco de Lucia, Al Di Meola and John McLaughlin - Mediterranean Sundance (Live in San Francisco version) - this is phenomenal!





I have a half-speed-mastered version of "Friday Night in San Francisco" (vinyl) - beautiful.

You ever get a chance to hear this on a good turntable/cartridge combo with tube electronics and good speakers that can image - it's just breathtaking.
