Jazz Greats: "Little" Jimmy Scott

Jimmy Scott (born July 17, 1925, also known as "Little" Jimmy Scott)


   "Little" Jimmy Scott sings with an unnatural high pitched vocal style, because of a rare condition, but he is considered a Jazz great by many. Please take a listen here and have a good Saturday: If I ever lost you , An evening in paradise , I got it bad and Everybody's somebody's fool (Lionel Hampton Band)
