Hi you all

Well some singers are musicians, without any doubt.

I don't quite get the significance of "razorblade" voices. Doesn't sound like it's a compliment. Or is it ? Is it said in the sense of having a "sharp" voice ? Anyway can't say that I like Liza Minelli's voice and surely not Ethel Merman's voice... Scary I don't know, but nothing that grabs my ear.

My taste mainly leans toward jazz : Ella Fitzgerald, Carmen McRae, Tony Bennett (superb duos with KDLang and Diana Krall), Monica Zetterlund (with Bil Evans) and Arita Frankline's R&B. Not so long ago I discovered Blossom Dearie, a particular voice.

In a wider range, Amy Winehouse also gets my vote (not her life style though..)

Classical genre : Emma Kirby's Mozart tears the house down and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau makes a winter's journey seem like a summer ballad...
