I would recommend the vocalists above before any of those marlonrom mentioned. This doesn't mean the ones he mentioned aren't any good. They are however, rather obscure.

Any of those I listed above are true diva's. This is not just my opinion.

I met Stanley years ago. He's from my general neighborhood. You might want to try some Return To Forever. I can especially recommend Light As A Feather.
Chick Corea Keyboards
Joe Farrell Flute
Lenny White Drums
Airto Percussion
Stanley Clarke Bass
Florim Purim Vocals

Check the dropbox Poppa Chubby set up sometime tomorrow night.

Don't forget the undeniable genius and sexiness of PEGGY LEE!!!
She's is one of the very few that actually wrote her own material.

Oooooh, that voice: velvet smoothness.
