JIMMY SCOTT & THE JAZZ EXPRESSIONS
San Francisco 1995 [Teddy Ballgame Archive, 2CD]
Live at the New Orleans Room, Fairmont Hotel, San Francisco, CA; March 5, 1995 (early and late show). Very good soundboard.
Jazz vocalist Little Jimmy Scott, known for his high countertenor voice and his sensitivity on ballads and love songs, passed away in 2014. He was 88. His unusual singing voice was due to Kallmann syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that limited his height to 4 feet 11 inches (150 cm) until the age of 37, when he grew by 8 inches (20 cm). The syndrome prevented him from reaching classic puberty and left him with a high voice. - wikipedia
