I just bought the CD "IMAGINE" by Eva Cassidy put together by her friends after she died of cancer. She is so amazing. I love the woman. Her covers of blues, folk, jazz, etc are unbelievable in my opinion. There are a number of CD's of hers I have already, including TIME AFTER TIME and SONGBIRD. I still need to get EVA BY HEART and LIVE AT BLUES ALLEY or whatever it's called. She is so amazing. So human. She can sing the white girl blues and she is so passionate and kind and sweet. Didn't become famous until after her death. Does an awesome cover of Sting's FIELDS OF GOLD, love her cover of KATHY'S SONG and various other stuff. SHe basically sings everything incredibly. Just someone who's soul was in the right place, and had her share of pain in life. So sad, so sweet, so beautiful. Eva cassidy. I first heard her name mentioned by mary lou lord at a concert and she told everyone to check out eva cassidy's music. A made a mental note of it, but didn't actually check her out till later. I think Mary Lou Lord helped to make Eva famous by spreading hte word at every concert. She also is good friends with Shawn Colvin who knows Sting and various other people and thhe word just spread until Eva got really big in Europe. Then people were looking for her because she was so famous but she was already dead from cancer. Anyway, her music and her spirit live on and I love her so much. Had to share that. Have a great day!
