Friday night is black and white divas night

[Yellow Fang]

Big, womens' voices, not necessarily big women's voices. Can be soul, jazz, blues, folk maybe, but has to be in black and white.

Given the time this thread has 'kicked off', someone should be singing 'Night and Day'

I don't think I'd ever heard of Brenda Lee till last week.



Great voice.

OK; it's not ALL in black and white, but the best female singer to emerge from Scotland for a long time has to get a mention:

 

[Cletus Van Damme]

I do not know whom the vocalist was originally on this track, but they were very good.



Christina Aguilera has a great powerful voice, shame she mainly sings average songs (Fighter is good) like so many decent singers do these days.

After 2mins 30 seconds.

That would be Clair Torry and the late great Doris Troy.
