I'm looking for female jazz vocal recordings, particularly any paradigms of
a particular style or era. A good friend of mine seeks inspiration and
guidance as she begins voice training. Her interests are broad, from Anita
O'Day (think of her performance in the mesmerizing film "Jazz on a Summer's
Day") to Lauryn Hill. Thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
Jonas

The worst part of it is that junk scripts like From Dusk to Dawn got produced. But in many ways Jackie Brown is a better film than Pulp Fiction, more mature and less flashy; certainly the weakest parts of Jackie Brown are the most "Tarrantino-ish." And the success of Pulp Fiction did let Miramax give QT his own boutique company that did released some worthy films (the first Wong Kar-Wai to come out in the US, Kitano's Sonatine) and some way-less-than-worthy (Jack Hill, Hardcore Logo).

Yeah, I saw Tricky a few years back, and he was amazing. He would
get going on a phrase and repeat and mutate it endlessly, and just
when you thought he would stop, he would keep going on. Martine
was with him, and proved to be quite a twisted angel foil to
Tricky's demonic presence. But, even then, it seemed the audience
came to dance. It WAS a dance hall. Just a few tables around the
periphery. And they couldn't figure out how to respond to the
music. So, Tricky sees a bunch of Zorn-listers sitting around the
tables, entranced, smiling and sipping their beers. And he sees
hundreds of frustrated listeners spread out before him. And he
sacrifices us for them. We're pissed . Sellout motherfucker.
