Born : January 9, 1941 // New York, NY, United States
American born singer-songwriter.
She is considered a folk singer although her music has strayed from folk considerably after the 1960s, encompassing everything from rock and pop to country and gospel.
Her soprano voice, three-octave range and distinct, rapid vibrato has led to appearances on classical, jazz and soundtrack recordings, most notably her numerous and highly acclaimed collaborations with Ennio Morricone.
