I studied and listened to her singing deeply. Learning from masters of any craft is very personal, and I took the task seriously growing up while masters like Ella Fitzgerald, were still gigging and being interviewed. It deepened my performances, and honed my craft the way iron sharpens a blade. When a master is alive their new, and their old work vibrates differently. It is because there is always the chance you might meet them, and in the music world you never know who will invite you on stage. - Gregory E. Woods (percussionist) 10/31/18
