Nobody mentioned Lena Horne's passing, so I thought I would. A dynamic live performer, I was never really very fond of most of her recordings. Ethel Waters' version of "Stormy Weather" was always my favorite. I know that Cole Porter hated her brassy renditions of some of his songs, like "It's All Right with Me." Still, she was a survivor and one of the last of her era.
