They are all great musicians . THEY ARE NOT CONVENIENTLY DEAD. I bet they are doing fine ; I bet they will still pull a crowd , where they are now . Sam Cooke , I believe that you can hear me on the other side , you had an amazing and colourful life ; your short life was very fascinating ; your tragic death is still shrouded in mystery . No one knows for sure what happened on that murky day. Rest in peace ; your music , as well as Etta's , Billy's, Ella's lives on.

Brits love Sam Cooke and Etta James... look up Northern Soul ... a phenomena worth reading about

with regards to all of the above artists I'd have to say that I like Ella (a tiskit a tasktit I found my yellow basket) best.
I'm from England.

totally awesome being british (welsh to be precise) and a rnb/soul/jazz musician, the cornerstone of what I like to call "the true groove" but ironically where england had the northern soul phenomena we had the strange phenomena of a nashville type country music scene (minus the hat and boots lol)

I'm American, but I have to say that Ella Fitzgerald is my idol. No one can sing like her (in my opinion).

Wonderful artists. Happy that they left so much of their music behind for other generations to enjoy.
