OK guys, how about another list since it's the plat du jour. This time it's singers who also play piano. So get ready for some women - this will be a refreshing sex change! And a continent change - we're going South... Mine: Eliane Elias Ivan Lins Blossom Dearie Aretha Franklin Diana Krall Nina Simone Hazel Scott Diane Schuur Carol Welsman George Duke Nat King Cole Ray Charles Fats Waller Mose Allison Otis Spann Memphis Slim Dr. John Pinetop Smith Speckled Red Some I don't like quite so much Shirley Horn Patricia Barber Norah Jones Tania Maria Clara Ponty Aziza Mustafa-Zadeh (probably should try harder...) Jamie Cullum Bob Dorough Jay McShann |

Not that it matters. She also killed "The Heart of Saturday Night" - she should do more Tom Waits. |
