The legendary contralto jazz singer Jimmy Scott passed away on Thursday. his voice was unusually high for a man, a side effect of a rare genetic disorder. If you've never heard the man's voice then perhaps this cover of the Prince classic might give you an idea of the talent the man had. If you're still unsure then, well...he was Frank Sinatra's favourite singer. That will settle any doubts.
My goodness, this is a beautiful rendition.
