BIG VOICES
American Routes belts it out in celebration of big voices. We'll sample three from across the musical board: the eerie smoothness of Little Jimmy Scott, an 79-year-old jazz singer who's recently been rediscovered; the crooning of country star Ray Price; and the gritty shout of Chicago blueswoman Koko Taylor.
