when I saw this thread title in the non-musiic forum, I was thinking of asking the admins to move it in the jazz lounge
 After all this should be a music subject if handled the right way

I like Diana Krall....excellent jazz voice, good pianist........ohh and very, very easy on the eyes. She's originally from Vancouver Island, BC.....Just north of here.
And she is married to Elvis Costello.....how he landed her is beyond me!!

There are many female greats but vocals is where you find the majority. Billy Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald are legends. Lil Armstrong, Marian McPartland. Mary Lou Williams and Hiromi are a few pianists. Billy Holiday is my fave though. Name me a woman explorer and name me a bloke who has pushed out twins

I will not answer because the female up roar would not be pleasant

Why is jazz male dominated?

I think the problem with a lot of the fusion music is that it's extremely predictable, it's a rock rhythm and the solos all play the same stuff and they play it over and over again ...
