 Another Masterpiece.
That voice is absoultely beautiful; better than Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, Mel Torme, etc...As for the ballad form, other than Shirley Horn, I can't think of anyone else that can nail it like Jimmy either. And that vibrato is as signature as Minnie Riperton's five octave leaps. Jimmy, good health always. You deserve every kudo you get, baby.
