A little bit of classic, oldschool cabaret died.
A wonderful artist and nice lady.
Check out her CDs, one of her them, an English-French combo, contains the finest cover of "It Might as Well Be Spring" that I've heard. It is in French, too!

Well that just killed my good mood. One of a kind, and I mean that literally. There was NO ONE LIKE HER.
Rest in sweet peace, Blossom, and I know you will be shadowing me for the rest of my life.

Such a unique voice. The first time I heard her sing, I didn't know who she was. It was a song for "Schoolhouse Rock" in the 1970s and she sang about adjectives:
He was a hairy bear
He was a scary bear

Blossom, Let your G*d, peel YOU a grape now.
Simply the best.

I am so sad!
I loved her voice. I always thought that if an antique baby doll could talk, that's what it would sound like...
She will be missed.

Here's a wonderful introduction to Blossom for those who may not know her and for those who do...
Just imagine yourself in a 1960s nightclub, sipping a cocktail with Betty and Adolph, listening to Blossom sing their songs...
