30 Fierce Women of Jazz from Yesterday and Today By   [11 more lists]

Everybody knows men usually take top dog positions in history even though women have contributed at least as much and in some cases more. Jazz is one of those areas where women haven’t always gotten their props but this year 2011 different organizations are paying them tribute. A woman described as a genius named Mary Lou Williams has been made the poster girl on the poster you see here for Jazz Appreciation Month, which evidently is observed in the U.S. every April same time as National Poetry Month. Since she’s the poster girl Williams tops this list. Most of everybody after her is ranked mostly chronologically, except number 5, instead of one being better than the other. They’re all seriously great musicians and excellent at their musicianship.

    Where's Sarah Vaughn? And why is Esperanza Spaulding in the top 5? Sarah Vaughn should be 4th, then Carmen Mcrae 5th, then Shirley Horn 6th, Nancy Wilson 7th, Nina Simone 8th. These women were pioneers in the jazz world. Carmen and Shirley both world class singers and pianists as well as Sarah and Nina. Esperanza has the opportunities she has because of these women. She has no place among them yet. Only time and an amazing body of work over at least 20 years can earn her a spot on this list.

      Agree about Sarah Vaughan. She was on the original list and got dropped by mistake. Don't agree that what Esperanza is accomplishing now means she should be in a lower position. A lot of Jazz is about picking up the ball and running with it to advance the music. All the people you named did that. Esperanza is doing it now.

    Awesome list, I will have to check some of these ladies out that I am unfamiliar with. You should check out Lizz Wright if you haven't already - she was the only one on this list that came to mind as perhaps "missing".
