On this date in 1996, Eva Cassidy passed away. Her voice was amazing. Her biggest problem musically was that the record executives and marketers could never pigeon-hole her into a specific genre. It wasn't until after her death that she became a best-seller (and in England no less).
This performance is from her last appearance at Blues Alley in DC shortly before she passed away.
I think the banjos, fiddles, dobros, guitars and mandolins will understand being asked to be silent today.
Sorry 'bout this being one of those "certain sites," but hit the link, you'll be glad you did.
