Three greatest female vocalists ever?

[MNDude]

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?

Eva Cassidy I heard on the Sinatra station I believe. I was mesmerized by her voice & her style. The song they played brought me to tears. I always assumed she was black until I looked her up just now. She truly was an original.

IMO you’re so right. Maria Callas was in a league of her own, which no one has ever even approached.

Never thought of Alison Krause as
Country/Western...
I discovered her in the movie
COLD MOUNTAIN...
Watching it now.

My vote goes to Mildred Bailey.

I'll second that!

Haven’t read the entire thread, but despite her foolish political perspective, Barbra Streisand had an amazing voice.
