Amber there was Rhapsody in Blue. I couldn't think what it was - thanks for mentioning it.

This is powerful and beautiful.Because of this tune on Victor Krummenacher's Patriarch Blues (with Alison Levy) I thought I try and discover the original and I'm amazed over Bessie's power. I'll definitely check out more music.

This must be the first music video ever, I thought it was "Subterranean homesick blues" by Dylan. And it feels like an opera, great :)
