Al Jarreau

Al Jarreau, the jazz virtuoso with a voice smoother than butter, was born to scat his way into our hearts in 1940s Milwaukee. With a vocal range wider than a jazz club's wine selection, he turned scatting into an art form that made even birds jealous. Grammy Awards? He collected them like rare vinyl records. With his velvety voice and charm, he could make you forget your troubles faster than a trombone solo at a Dixieland festival. Al Jarreau: the man who could scat away the blues and leave you smiling like you just heard your favorite joke.
