Hey,
I feel a need to listen to something new.
I'm looking for something jazzy or blues like. Basically just a singing woman with a pretty voice. Mostly just very slow too.
Can anyone point me to something? |

Yes I can 
I'm in to jazz in massive way!
While looking for songs with my favourtie bassist 'Jaco Pastorius' playing in them.
I stumbled upon 'Joni Mitchell'!
I've only got three songs but they keep me smiling
Look for:
Hejira
God must be a boogie man
The dry Cleaner from Des Monies |

Hmm.. i'm not a jazz fan, and i'm not sure how many of those are considered jazz, but here are a few that i like:
I Gres - Restless (brums, bass, trumpet)
Bernard Herrmann - Taxi Driver Theme (trumpet all the way)
Claes Wikdahl - Early summer (guitar)
Dave Brubeck Quintet - Take five (sic jazz) |

"Bodily Functions" by Matthew Herbert.
Its glitchy electronic jazz with gorgeous female vocals.
Here's a link to buy it at CDNow, but it hasn't got samples. |

| Thank you all very much. I will see what I can find. There is a huge cd library down the street that has pretty much everything. So I'll see if I can find some stuff there. |

Hehe, I know who Claes Wikdahl is! I haven't seen him in a year or so, but I met him when I was working with Headhunter (dreamcast). I was really suprised to see his name here. I found this on his homepage, you can download the song (and other) there.
I would like to recommend Billie Holiday. |

Silje Nergaard. She's Norwegian and sings these gorgeous jazz covers. I think she matches your description perfectly.
