    Sad to hear, the gentle music created by her and the other musicians of that era was lovely. Still enjoy hearing it, they live on. 🎶

    Or this one where her husband is playing, I think she volunteered to sing when no-one could be found originally and was ignored by Stan Getz etc till she stepped up and started doing things on her own.
