It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Love Nina to death-

Unselfishly (uncharacteristically) I'll name just one: "Nina and Piano", said to be her personal favorite. It confounds me to this day that she is not given credit loudly enough for being the template which Cassandra Wilson et al have borrowed from, i.e. "jazz singing" broadly defined to include folk, the blues, rock, cabaret... Bob Dylan and Randy Newman songs alongside Irving Berlin, and she did catch heat for it in her day. Her payback being her artistic and financial success...
