Eva Cassidy....genius gone too soon

[Kooperman]

I only discovered Eva Cassidy a few months ago and I'm astounded I never heard of her before that. The first time I heard her music I was floored that such a talent could have labored in anonymity. Her music didn't become popular until after her death at the age of 33. If you've never heard her, please give her a listen...do yourself a favor and sample the song "Wade In The Water"...you won't regret it:

Eva Cassidy is wonderful.... it's a shame that she died so young. Wade in the Water is a great track and I love her version of Songbird and Fields of Gold.

It's amazing what passes us by Koop, but life's full of nice little discoveries still waiting to be made.

Absolutely...to hear so many no-talents who made it big, then to hear somebody as unique as Eva Cassidy who didn't make it until after her death is depressing in its unjustness.

I have tears in my eyes....Kooperman...If I never come back to this website again(which is highly unlikely)...at least I came away with Eva Cassidy...THANK YOU.

She did a version of some song I can't think of now, but it is a very pretty song, she has a fabulous voice. I've heard other artists covering the same song, but her version is my favorite.

I've got some of her albums. I guess I just need to give em a listen. :) I got them for someone else originally.

I have to check out her music obviously.

"Time After Time" is the song I couldn't think of earlier.

I have to check out her music obviously.

It's pretty much everyone else's music but her renditions of them are so unique and beautiful :)

Ya I fell in love with her. Never would have discovered her if it weren't for this hippy chick

Glad I did though. Great singer with lots of soul.

I still have DVD compilation I made of the only video ever made.

I would be willing to torrent it ;)

There is as I recall a torrent of her discography with most of that video included.

You'll have to search I dont think its a good idea to post it here. :(

Peace.
