Posted: 5/10/10 at 1:01amI have to say I am sitting here a bit stunned. A lot of memories are washing over me right now. She and her music were a part of my youth.

When I was a teen I was obsessed with this live recording of Lena singing "New Fangled Tango" from Happy Hunting. I must find it and listen again.
RIP to a beautiful, unique talent. I shall listen to Jamaica in your honor!

Posted: 5/10/10 at 2:37amThe OCR of JAMAICA is a fine showcase. And since there was hardly any story you can just enjoy one great Harold Arlen tune after another.
Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!
I host a weekly one-hour radio program featuring cast album selections as well as songs by cabaret, jazz and theatre artists. The program, FRONT ROW CENTRE is heard Sundays 9 to 10 am and also Saturdays from 8 to 9 am (eastern times) on www.proudfm.com

Posted: 5/10/10 at 10:51amMay she rest in peace. My parents had a Lena Horne album when I was growing up that I liked enough to go see her in Lena Horne: The Lady and Her Music. That show and her performance have stuck with me to this day. She epitomized strength and beauty.

I posted this in the thread on the Off Topic Board. It's Len accepting the honorary Tony Award for A Lady and Her Music and singing "If You Believe" from The Wiz.
