Nancy Wilson [1968] - Face It Girl, It's Over [Capitol #2136]


For me, Nancy Wilson is one of the classiest jazz singers, with such a distinctive voice and style who we lost in the same year as Aretha at the age of 81.  This is a live performance of one of her best songs which is the A side side of her Northern Soul classic 'The End Of Our Love'.

I've also added a live rendition of a standard she released in 1961 which she performs in her own inimitable way in 1994 and a full concert from 1987.


Nancy Wilson [1961] - Guess Who I Saw Today [Capitol #4647]

Now this is how to deliver a song! A spectacular performance in 1994.


Live @ Newport Jazz Festival 15 Aug 1987 - Full Concert

If you listen to nothing else on this concert, listen to her rendition of 'A Song For You' at 2:25.
