Abbey Lincoln

One of the greatest jazz composers and singers -- via the New York Times. One of my heroines -- a Renaissance woman! I am including a recording of her song "Throw It Away," which has cheered me endless times when I was down, and I think serves as an admirable philosophy to live by. Listen to it, learn it, live it, love it!

The Jimi Hendrix of the accordion! via the San Antonio Express-News. A conjunto legend!
