I adore this woman! I swear when I first heard of her (from the "Collaborations" CD), I couldn't believe I what I've been missing. It has been about a good 20 years since I've heard vocals like Jill's. This CD ("Experience") is absolutely the best LIVE album of all time! No kidding. This woman moved me and I was not present at her show! I never heard of Jill Scott until last year (2007) when I got her "Collaborations" CD.Jilly from Philly is a musical gem, one we've all longed for and now we have her. Jill's vocal range is probably an 8, a rarity in the past 20 years. Sarah Vaughan's and Ella Fitzgerald's range were an 8. For Sass, perhaps 9! LOL Talk about fine singers. Jill Scott's name is up along with Sassy Sarah Lois Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald, First Lady of Song.You go, Sister Jill. -- an avid fan 4ev'r. ABUPDATED (6/17/08): For those who do not know, there is a brief silent period after the last track entitled "Free". I had my headphones on my ear listening for about 3 minutes of dead space on my MP3 player when I heard two additional tracks!!! It begins exactly 3:48 seconds after "Free" is finished. There is a revamped version of "Gotta Go to Work" and following this track is the lovely club-disco mix of "He Loves Me". Surprise...surprise!! Note: I want a club-disco mix version of Free, He Loves Me, Sweet Justice, You Got me (especially this track) and more! Please...someone help...I gotta gotta gotta get the club remixes of some of Jill's finest works. : )
