if the demand was out there to hear them. Most of the so-called "jazz" vocalists making records right now are trying to SELL records and, as a result, have seriously dumbed-down the artistic and expressive elements of their styles. There may be other elements at play, but there is simply NO WAY that I'd be comfortable with the idea that "humans can't sing this way anymore" -- it is definitely a cultural thing.
