I heard that when she first became 'popular' ... I have to believe that is what gave her the 'edge' in the music business ... her first CD was OK, but I could not see it winning the "Best Jazz Album" ... Recently saw a video of her with Marion McPartland singing all 'Great American Standards' and was pretty impressed ...
Meanwhile, back to the topic ... glad you and your friends had a great time Diki ... enjoy every day ... we don't know how many we have ...

I was a fan from the first note - I called her Grammy sweep before the show aired. LOVE her. Rumor has it she never got along with her Dad. That would kill me, as a parent. She's a simple, but elegant player, and SOOOOOO pretty. I listen to Marian McPartland's show whenever I can - she's AMAZING!
