But them faces are a no no boo...
Also... my serious thought on this... his solo is v competent and tasty sounding... but it lacks a bit of taste... its not aware of the tune.. but then after that farce of a scat what can you expect...
lol. well I think all we have here is two performers coming from two different backgrounds. GBenson is a guitarist above all else, so he's singing all his guitar lines...but with his voice. Scott is singing things she just hears in her head. they are both great just George has stronger harmonic ideas. maybe. who cares.
Love George Benson...love him more when he has a guitar.
And arguably they are both scatting, just her vocabulary is very blues/soul and his language is very bebop, which is understandable given their musical identities.
I'm promise not being contrary either, I think your opinion is as valid as mine...
Listen to Ella or Carmen Mcrae - those are strong black women and REAL jazz singers.
Jill Scott is the opposite of both of those women to me. She over-sings most notes and throws her voice around.
Excuse me for voicing my opinion and in a mildly articulate, non-flaming manner that had absolutely nothing to do with racism.
Take a look at yourself and stop accusing other people.

How is saying you hate someone not flaming? Your opinion is stupid, and wrong, and you have bad taste.
Disagree with it if you like - I don't really care. The racism remarks were just odd and misplaced though.
