Ella Fitzgerald - "Sunshine of Your Love", an interesting choice for sure, but I couldn't agree more with:
"The First Lady of Song," Ella Fitzgerald was arguably the finest female jazz singer of all time (although some may vote for Sarah Vaughan or Billie Holiday). Blessed with a beautiful voice and a wide range, Fitzgerald could outswing anyone, was a brilliant scat singer, and had near-perfect elocution. Her one fault was that, since she always sounded so happy to be singing, Fitzgerald did not always dig below the surface of the lyrics she interpreted, and she even made a downbeat song such as "Love for Sale" sound joyous. However, when one evaluates her career on a whole, there is simply no one else in her class. ~ Scott Yanow
Tough choice between the three named - for my money the latter two always seemed more emotionally authentic, but Ella definitely remains a benchmark.
