impression of Cleo Laine, John Dankworth and friends on North Sea Jazz. The bad sound (sorry) doesn't do justice to the great music. Both at 80 especially she looked quite fit for her age. Pity I have never seen Ella Fitzgerald or Sarah Vaughan live but this experience probably was the last chance to see a legendary female jazz singer of that generation.
recording quality is poor....this video should be removed.
