Yma Sumac, "Wimoweh"

I hope Jerry Butler is on list.

[P.O.E.]

She had a vocal range of almost 5 octaves, one of best-selling South Americans of all-time, popularized "exotica" (lounge-music).

And no Enrico Caruso?

So I call BS on Rolling Stone's claim:

In all cases, what mattered most to us was originality, influence, the depth of an artist’s catalog, and the breadth of their musical legacy.....But in the end, the singers behind it are here for one reason: They can remake the world just by opening their mouths.

Typical self-indulgent bloviating.

So "Greatest Singers"?, no. Better title would have been "we asked around the office and threw in some fringe acts so we'd look cool"
