Thanks & Goodbye Chris. But your voice will be my friend forever. Rest in Peace.

I always dreaded the day we would lose Chris. She was so much a part of my childhood and growing up. As I got to tell her face to face her records and music opened up a whole new world of possibility for me. I knew there was something out there waiting though I didn't what it was or where it was. She always evoked sophistication and freedom for me. An irreplaceable artist you can be sure people will be listening to 100 years from now.

She really is amazing. One wonders what other great singers thought when listening to her. I imagine them smiling and shaking their heads, listening. To my uneducated ear, no one does it better than Chris. How fortunate it was to see her on her 1992 tour. If someone has the original Atlantic 1228 album (I believe the newly released version has several B-takes substituted), I hope it can be digitized and put online.

I learned how to sing because of Chris Connor, and had the pleasure of seeing her live in Rochester, NY

One of the great Jazz singers, she had individual style and in a class all her own may she RIP. There is going to be some great entertainment up there.

I can't belive this talent is gone. So lucky I have her albums to keep me company especially on those rainy gloomy days!!

I just found out that she is gone. The world was a much better place with Chris Connor.

I am late with this tribute... Chris was the best... the very best! She was incomparable... How I will miss her... her voice... her phrasing... her songs... her cool interpretations... all these will live on... I never did have the opportunity to see her in person... how sad... but as with all her fans... we have her records... some of my favorites... 10 Cents a Dance... On the First Warm Day... Moonlight in Vermont... God Bless You Chris...

Always loved her records. Chris sings the Gentle BossaNova is a favorite. Could kick myself for never going to see her live at Gulliver's in Jersey when I had the chance.

My fondest farewell to you, Miss Connor. You'll live on each time we hear your voice, or those who haven't shared your talent come to discover you. It's so sad to say goodbye, but sweet to think of you and June Christy serenading all our old friends, literally, "somewhere there's music..." So please say hi to Stan too! Peace.
