It's amazing how you've drawn the faces of the voices and music that I listen to daily. A neccessity . I'll wager a bet that Holiday was not singing "Strange Fruit" in this particular piece. Fabulous series . Any plans to include Nina and Odetta? Again, fabulous , I hear them all.

I think everything I've seen is a ten-and I love Billy Holiday, Nina Simone, Miles and John Coltrane
