A few weeks ago we had a thread with a subject of who the greatest male vocalist ever were. There were many great comments on that thread. So for tonight, I am asking who do you think are the three greatest female vocalists ever?
Eartha Kitt.
Julie Andrews and Patsy Cline.
*And, dare I say, Janice Joplin.*
That’s my gal! Love her. To date, incomparable and probably the most unique -nobody has been able to copy her - well, until now. Check this out:

I like Dinah Washington and Dinah Shore.
And I think Kelly Clarkson wipes the floor with Christina. Much better control of her vocals. Better live singer.
Remember Christina doing the anthem??
Here’s Kelly

> Maudy Fricker! <
Most people don’t know it, but at age 17 Maude quit his senior year of high school, and joined the U.S. Marine Corps. He served two and a half years in the Pacific Theater during World War II.
The greatest generation, indeed.
Like, Like, Like!
Beth Orton
Tracy Thorne (of Everything But the Girl)
Bjork
Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn?
What you said...
Adult Contemporary:
Celine Dion
Lara Fabian
Whitney
Pop/Rock: Ann Wilson
Thank you for this incredible footage and movie! What an excellent historical piece of Americana! Thank you!
Bette relaxes me too.
Hope all came out good...
You get the 8x10 glossies?
Janis Joplin is an outstanding choice. Of the women from my generation, (60’s & 70’s), she is there with Karen Carpenter and Linda Ronstadt. Janis is the only one I did not see perform live. She would have been great.
Ella Fitzgerald.
