PATTY WATERS


Born in 1946, singer and pianist Patty Waters emerged from the underground/free/avant-garde jazz scene in New York in the mid 60s. She was inspired by Billie Holiday and no doubt the free players of that era — in a roundabout way, Waters is to jazz singing what Albert Ayler was/is to the saxophone. Bio by Mark Keresman.
