Looking forward to reading the new third edition of the book. It gives me hope I can keep my own book relevant for its planned upcoming second edition.

So I read the last chapter, and it was so great ... mainly about jazz vocalists in the last decade but what it had on those made it worth the purchase. If you haven't watched the YouTube video on Eva Cassidy at Blues Alley, try to find the time to watch it. It has her four musicians talking (about a year ago ... more than 20 years after that night) talking about the creation of the recording of that night's performance. What they have to say about her choice of keys (Eb minor) for Autumn Leaves is amazing. The love that the four of them have for Eva Cassidy is inspiring. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEqzTlZdfSo&t=1223s
