A couple of wonderful songs from Fish. This lovely piece from his first solo album, with an orchestral arrangement so beautiful it brings a tear to my eye:

 

And then there's this, later piece. Deals with the gradual loss of a loved one to dementia. Mascara warning:

Two fabulous tracks from way back when. First up, a masterclass in duetting - Billy Eckstine and Sarah Vaughan, Passing Strangers.

 

And another great Jazz singer, with one of her more popular, less Jazzy outings, but still a gorgeous track, Ella Fitzgerald, Ev'ry Time we Say Goodbye, complete with that fabulous line, 'but how strange the change from major to minor'

In one....I think he was playing the first Alembic I had ever seen when I saw Judie Tzuke at college.  Better than that headless wonder he has just flogged!
