Diane Schuur

Equally influenced by jazz, blues and pop, Diane Schuur is a vocal powerhouse who's recorded with everyone from Stan Getz to B.B. King to Barry Manilow. Schuur's ability to soar through standards -- changing tempo and octaves as she goes -- isn't always matched by an equally thoughtful attention to the lyric. Nonetheless, she's a multiple Grammy winner and has topped the jazz charts numerous times during the 1980s, '90s and beyond.
