Peggy Lee was another although your first three had to be amongst the very best.

For pure emotion it's Billie Hilliday. How can one listen to Strage Fruit without being moved?

For technique it has to be Ella.

All around I give it to Sarah "Sassy" Vaughn.

For new singers I might add Diana Reeves as well as those mentioned above.
