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.
PEACE.

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
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

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...
