  • ilovebigband, thank You, I love bigband swing and Jimmy Scott. This tune as with others of Mrs Scott, is just a lovely piece of America music. Jimmy Scott among the best singers and swing singers to have lived. Sho you right, to understand Mr Scott is to know self.

  • Wow, wonderful.

  • To understand Jimmy is to understand how bad pain inside can really feel.

  • :D Wow thats a really nice Contralto voice. I could imagine how deep his voice would be if he developed normally.

  • soul of an entire age and place in this guy!

  • is that Hilliard Greene on the bass?

  • Jimmy was Billie Holiday's favorite singer.He sure knows how to pull some taffy.I met him in Boston.He's very down to earth. We share the same birthday but he has a few years on me.

    Best male jazz vocal artist of all time.

  • Jimmy Scott's phrasing is incredible. The long pauses really swing. And the band's swinging. Great piano player, Mike Kanan!

  • merci Slimy de m'avoir fait connaître cet artiste!

  • Idem pour moi :p

  • idem

  • Moi c'est André Manoukian qui me l'a fait connaitre, avant Sliimy.

  • I assure you - This Man is blessed

  • My 'Hero' what a voice, the male Billie Holiday'.

  • Amongst one of the greatest legendary singers

    yes in deed

  • Mari Ana, your right, but, his voice has declined in his later years, just like all the singers (Jazz or not). listen to his early recordings, he does have a unique voice but, what he does with it WOW.

  • I agree. I have never heard him as a younger vocalist. This is why I said he has a style. Sometimes a style is better then having a 5 octave,perfect vocal. He does have a style. So did Dinah Washington and yes Lady Day. thank you for commenting me. Mari Ana
