Another of the greats now gone: http://https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/jul/22/annie-ross-british-american-jazz-singer-and-actor-dies-aged-89 - http://https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/jul/22/annie-ross-british-american-jazz-singer-and-actor-dies-aged-89 Still, she lived at least nine lives in 89 years  - and I love John Fordham's line that "Annie Ross in her prime could sing a jazz line with the kind of late-swerving agility and inventiveness Lionel Messi applies to steering a football"  Currently listening to this beauty i.m. - surely one of the finest vocal jazz LPs ever made: http://https://www.discogs.com/Annie-Ross-Zoot-Sims-A-Gasser/release/5949780 - http://https://www.discogs.com/Annie-Ross-Zoot-Sims-A-Gasser/release/5949780  RIP Annie
