  • When did this performance take place?

  • This was back in the early or mid 60's I believe...

  • Too cool for school, Miss Carmen!

  • This is jazz as it should be. This woman can really swing.For much of her life she was a great interpreter of jazz.

  • the best version ever ~

    love seeing this!

  • Chills. That's what I have here.

  • What I love about everything she did is she combined great jazz feeling and hip sensibility with really telling the story of each song with the appropriate feeling, attitude and emotion at the same time. Also, she never went for easy sentimentality or dramatics. Everything she did was suffused with a sense of nobility and being slightly above it all while still being wise, knowing and honest. What an artist!

  • I LOVE , BESIDES CARMEN'S GORGEOUS VOICE, SWING & DELIVERY, THE ARRANGEMENT: HOW THE PIANIST LAYS OUT DURING THE BEGINNING A SECTIONS; THAT'S NICE!

  • when I'm lonely, I sing amazing grace to myself like a 60s jazz singer with a lisp...

  • FANTASTIC!

  • c'est la patachou des etats unis (for french people only)

  • Lord, is she wonderful or what?

  • Talent

  • FABULOUS !!!!!
