Jazz artists: Duke Ellington, Count Basie, most of the better known Big Bands of the 30s & 40s, Charlie Parker, Jimmy Smith, Wes Montgomery, Mose Allison, Dave Brubeck, Chet Baker, Roland Kirk (early stuff), Pete Fountain, Chuck Mangione (kind of "pop jazz"), Harry Connick Jr. (not strictly "jazz," though, as he cuts across several categories)

Male vocalists: Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Frankie Laine, Tony Bennett, Nat King Cole, Mel Torme

Female vocalists: Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holliday, Judy Garland, Andrews Sisters, Dinah Shore, Sarah Vaughan, Dinah Washington, Julie London, Peggy Lee, Jo Stafford

We listen to classical and know several people who are jazz afficionados. I don't get jazz, but I like the people who listen to it. They are typically bright and interesting.
