Talk:Alice Babs

Untitled
Does she live in Sweden? Swedish wikipedia says she lives in Spain, and that's what I always heard - unless she moved back less than five years ago. / Habj 22:36, 6 October 2005 (UTC)

Moved to talk page
I have moved the following from the article to the talk page. Although the entire article lacks attribution, this statement was appended to the "External links" section and seemed more like a commentary. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 19:30, 8 April 2010 (UTC) Alice Babs made her first recording with Duke Ellington in Paris in March 1963. It is not listed in the discography. It was recorded at the Hoche Studio (near the Arch de Triumph). The album was number TRS 11100 and was named "Serenade Of Sweden". It was recorded by Teldec for Grammofon AB Electra, Sweden. There were 15 tracks on the record and for one or more of them Alice was asked by the Duke to both play and sing. There was a handful of visitors from the arts community of Paris who had learned of this event that had crammed into the control room. At the end of recording one particularly moving track by Alice the Duke remarked to the visitors "This voice, ladies and gentlemen, embodies all the warmth, joy of life, rhythm and tragedy that, for me, is the innermost secret of jazz".
