I'll never forget how my heart sank when I heard Nancy had left us in December of 2018, I couldn't believe it! Nancy Wilson and Frank Sinatra had been part of my musical life as long as I could remember. What Nancy could do with a song, in her inimitable style, was nothing short of miraculous! She truly told a story in song when she sang, her own special way, and it morphed into my heart and soul. I don't think any other singer has made me feel my own depths as much as in Nancy's rendition of so many songs. A musician myself, I have great respect for other singers I love to listen to also, but none has touched my soul as deeply as when Nancy sings, it's so special. I'll always miss this lovely, classy lady, but I'm so glad we have her fabulous recordings to keep her in our hearts and minds -- always!
I was 19 when I first saw her perform live and followed her ever since. I loved Nancy Wilson yesterday, today, and always! Rest in Heaven queen. You touched endless souls.
"How glad I am". That song came out when I about 10 years old , and I fell in love with Nancy Wilson, have loved her talent ever since. Yes, she was elegant.
As a child my Parent belonged to The Columbia Record Club , and it was predestined they would choose “Hollywood My Way “ Nancy singing famous hit songs from from films , this record came in around 1963 a life long deep and lasting appreciation for Ms Wilson bloomed even in her passing has not waned . Always a dignified but still down to earth performer , the World was a better place because God gave us Nancy Wilson
She skillfully lead with her voice through the changes. Love this song, 'How Glad I Am'. And I love Nancy Wilson. Class ! Originality. Authenticity. Beauty. Grace.
I grew up listening to Nancy Wilson . She was an amazing person. She was a friend of my moms and sang at one of the tributes for my mom when she passed. True class😊
R.I.P Nancy Wilson!! You have been such an inspiration to our family!! Back in the sixties my sister was a singer your catalog was always soaring through our house! My sister did emulate you and I even got in on it myself.. Cuz you are a Class Act a beautiful black woman!! Back in those days you were role model. I will continue to keep you in my 💝!!
That was so sweet. They were giving her her flowers that she so richly deserved. I have loved her music since I was a child and my oldest brother played her music in our house. Divine. For decades, imo, she had the most beautiful tone I'd ever heard.
I have seen and/or met many singers in my younger days one reason having once worked in Hollywood, CA BUT....I never was able to see Nancy Wilson in concert and "IF I COULD" there will be no way I would miss such a treasure. I love and idolize her and I'm sure she knows how many lives she has touched through her gift. God Bless her and Patton College for posting this video.
I am so very IMPRESSED with my Favorite Jazz Vocalist, MISS NANCY WILSON's performance at this event. Dang! And she was about 74 then!! WOW! I hear that she has retired as of 2012, but I PRAY to God that I will have an opportunity catch her LIVE at an appearance of some sort soon. I became a fan late (as I began singing jazz in 2008 after singing R& B and show tunes for years). She tops my list of all time singers of ANY genre! I LOVE YOU, NANCY!!!! I will FOREVER follow in her footsteps!! God Bless you, my Lady!!
Class class class class c classic beautiful she is a dying art of how women of color old school carry them self with Elegance Regal and class if only it was still alive and well today
Lovely comment Vanessa. Neen a favourite of mine since my long lost youth. She was beautiful and so talented. An all-time greatest of the greats. This performance was indicative of her talent. So sad when I heard of her passing last December (2018).
She is and always will be one of the best singers I have ever heard. As a young child my mom played her records. I still love listening to her music. at 67 years.
Nancy Wilson is just superb! I've loved her voice since I can remember. She's always been beautiful. I've seen her perform at least 3 times, and enjoyed her tremendously!
I loved this woman since I was 17 and I feel so lost without her. I am praying that if I get to heaven I will be able to meet her and give her the hug I have wanted to for years. I am now 76 and white which I don't think it matters. She was just the most beautiful and best singer ever. I miss you Nancy more than you will ever know.
The gentlemen said it all so perfectly …. NANCY WILSON is one of THE Finest female vocalist ever … add that she is Beautiful and elegant and stunning in a class of her own . NANCY WILSON will be missed always . Thank you for your great gift of music excellence ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
God blessed her with a incredible voice style then She blessed us with songs for decades. I was 15 when I first hear her voice and it was unmistakably "Nancy Wilson" Thank you and I thank God you were here. R.I.P. Lady.
How wonderful for you that you have a chart to tell you who to like and support the artistry of so you dont have to think on your own (I'm sure its better for the rest of us that you dont). Nancy Wilson is everything a woman wants to be and everything a lady has to be. Nancy Wilson is an artist, artist; Your favorite singer's favorite singer. 60 years of singing over 50 albums, and an instrument completely and uniquely her own, Elvis should be so lucky to even be mention in the same coversation.
Only my boy Michael could put together such a precise description like that for Nancy. I love Nancy Wilson. I'm so thankful to have been blessed by her talent and spirit. That looks like James Hankins, my brother-in-law playing the bass.
Wow.... Of all the greats I think Nancy's voice lasted the longest. This seems so effortless and there are no obvious weak points in her range. And she looks good for her age. Love her!
Totally agree. Lots of greats have lost their voices. Even Tina Turner once said that when she did her last tour before retiring, she was mad because she couldn't hit some of her notes. Lol. I'm mad I never listened to Nancy much growing up. I knew she could sing, but I've just started getting into her. She's truly a gem.
I have heard many tributes to great artists, but none as eloquent and spot on as Eric Dysons tribute to Nancy Wilson. Watching her she reminds me that Queens are born and not made, that charisma and class, like skin, can never be erased, and how remarkable that her honeyed voice still has that ability to be strong and vulnerable with that unmistakable breathy sob. This might sound strange but I know what I mean when I describe Nancy Wilson as the "Mrs Robinson" of any genre she chooses.
How glad I am for your talent, kindness and generosity. Will never forget your recording my songs “Deeper” and “I Never Held Your Heart” on your 50th album. One of a kind, unique. A trailblazer for all of us to follow. ❤️
...don't know if she 'officially' retired...all i know is that ms. wilson has given all of us something...even if it was one note...and that's all she needed to do....Ms. Wilson, you are a true Queen.....
Although I know your God given song stylings have returned to the angels with your spirit. I am so blessed to have grown up listening to you because of my family's musical tastes. That foundation lead to me to sit solo at an intimate concert you gave in SF. I'm blessed you were here. Your gifts have touched so many all over the world and you made us, black people, swell with pride because of the way you lived and your generosity in supporting our struggles for equality. May your family and friends find comfort in all that you gave. Thank you Ms.Nanacy Wilson D. Dickson Dallas,TX.
These people are in good company in gushing over "this woman. Oprah too, honored her at her Legends Ball a few years ago. She is an American Treasure. In my opinion, numbers can be deceiving. Back when she started in 1952, think about the social setting. There was no gender or race equality then. She excelled in a climate that was against her. I question whether many of the "artists" of today have the moxie to face what she did and still sing with dignity and class.
I had the honor of seeing her at the Westchester Premier Theatre in NY. She was outstanding. Very pleasant with the audience. She lacked nothing. Beauty unmatched voice intelligent and great style. Just gorgeous. An absolute delight.
I fell in love with her in my dorm room in 1967. I still love her. Her body is ageing here. She is seated which would not have been the case at a younger healthier time. At 72, my body has begun to give in too. RIP MS Nancy Wilson!
I really find I miss her. Which is crazy, as we never met. She’s my favorite vocalist and I really find it a tragedy that she didn’t get even more recognition. She deserves to be up there with the Ella’s, Barbra’s, Aretha’s, etc… but I guess she was just so jazzy and way to sophisticated for the masses.
She’s so real in her approach to music, but she goes where she pleases-the better to reveal a magic with her perfect diction, endless colors, and spirituality borne of a perfect faith in the Almighty. Rest in peace You gorgeous creature!
Also, the rating system is completely different now then when she started. There are many TRULY talented legends who have never gotten proper recognition. Perfect example is Diana Ross, to date she has never received a Grammy. Lastly, did you know that many of the African American artists that inspired Elvis' sound and style never had #1's either, not due to a lack of talent, but with segregation and all, Elvis was more marketable. Nancy Wilson is a LIVING LEGEND. I'm just saying...
We saw her at Blues Alley. The most marvelous experience. Jill Scott took many performance cues from this ledgend. She put the mic down at her side and her it still caught her voice strong and proud. No opening act. Just 3 hrs with Nancy an arm's length away. 😊
Artist love to share their gifts and talents...They stop when they want to...because they're tired.....If Nancy wants to stop...thats it...she WANTS to stop! People that continue to perform...BLESS THEM!!!! They CAN!!!
At 74 she could have chosen a much easier song, but this was a performance fighting with guts, grace and humility against the inevitability of age-and ended up showing the young ones how its done- and some!. How magnificent was this!
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT???? AT AGE 74, SHE SOUNDED FANTASTIC!!!! SHE SOUNDED JUST AS SHE DID WHEN SHE MADE THIS RECORD!!! HOW OLD ARE YOU CHILD?? DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT NANCY WILSON'S REPERTOIRE?????
Anyone who has followed her career knows that she selected material SHE wanted to sing..this performance was extraordinary in her ability to still be able to express the depth of the song. Lyricist express the lyrics and that's what she did.. breathtakingly so .
My uncle Rusty Bryant gave Ms Wilson her start back in the day. She and my mother sang with his orchestra a lot before his career got started. My mother was Barbara McCarroll. He once told the story of Ms Wilson wanting to go with his band to California, but there wasn’t any room in the van with all of the equipment. She was upset. About half way through the trip they kept hearing noises in the back of the van. He pulled over to see what it was and discovered that Nancy had hid behind the drums. So they had to take her with them. The rest is history.
Does anybody have the LIVE recording of her and Carl Anderson at Carnegie Hall singing. "Forbidden Lovers". It is the most mesmerizing performance EVER ! I hope someone who has it will post it. I see several videos posted on TH-cam from that show...except the 2 songs she sung with Carl Anderson. I didn't know until he passed recently that he was married to Veronica Ali (Laila Ali's mother). R.I.P. Nancy and Carl
That's it. I'm done. I had a talent. I didn't handle it well. I discovered it late. Too late. I admire how Nancy Wilson lives her life. Wow, I feel courage with these last times.
I Agree with Everthing Michael Eric Dyson said about Nancy. She said that she has Retired fom Performing. Most Peope retire from thier professions at some point she in her 70's. She has been out here since the Late 1950's. She desreves a retirement.She knows that she is loved around the world by her fans .People have a tendency to push older Entertainers to Keep going. But their is a time to stop. She has Contributed a lot......she iconic like Lena Horne & deserves some time off the stage.
RIP Nancy......... Your voice will live forever.
Bless her, NNCY WILSON was the best. She took that old song CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF YOU to a sensual height unmatched...EVER. EIP dear Nancy Wilson.
Pure class from beginning to end! God Bless you Ms. Nancy Wilson!!!
I'll never forget how my heart sank when I heard Nancy had left us in December of 2018, I couldn't believe it!

I was so very sad when I heard of her passing, I loved Frank as well still do . 😢😢❤❤❤❤
Can't stay here indefinitely
Nancy Wilson is one of my favorite singers in the world!! :)
I was 19 when I first saw her perform live and followed her ever since. I loved Nancy Wilson yesterday, today, and always! Rest in Heaven queen. You touched endless souls.

"How glad I am". That song came out when I about 10 years old , and I fell in love with Nancy Wilson, have loved her talent ever since. Yes, she was elegant.
She looked beautiful and sounded amazing, even at 74! Sad we lost her 3 years ago
I adore her. Her voice is gone but she pulls it off. Listen to her sing this around 1960 and u'll see what I mean.❤
As a child my Parent belonged to The Columbia Record Club , and it was predestined they would choose “Hollywood My Way “ Nancy singing famous hit songs from from films , this record came in around 1963 a life long deep and lasting appreciation for Ms Wilson bloomed even in her passing has not waned .

At 74, the class, grace and silky voice is her legend. I wish younger singers today had her style. This is how you age with time!

Lord have mercy, Nancy is the BEST. I have no words
My uncle Rusty Bryant gave Ms Wilson her start back in the day. She and my mother sang with his orchestra a lot before his career got started. My mother was Barbara McCarroll. He once told the story of Ms Wilson wanting to go with his band to California, but there wasn’t any room in the van with all of the equipment. She was upset. About half way through the trip they kept hearing noises in the back of the van. He pulled over to see what it was and discovered that Nancy had hid behind the drums. So they had to take her with them. The rest is history.
Rest In Peace Good Night Sweet Songstress
I am glad they gave her the roses while she was still alive and to have Dr. Dyson, oh my, he summed it up excellently.
Ive loved her for 65 years. I listen to her all the time...but that was rough.
she's great
Well, I'm sure in love with the vocals (and band!) I just heard. Can I get an amen? AMEN!
mikedtw AMEN!
Does anybody have the LIVE recording of her and Carl Anderson at Carnegie Hall singing. "Forbidden Lovers". It is the most mesmerizing performance EVER ! I hope someone who has it will post it. I see several videos posted on TH-cam from that show...except the 2 songs she sung with Carl Anderson. I didn't know until he passed recently that he was married to Veronica Ali (Laila Ali's mother). R.I.P. Nancy and Carl
Great version of her hit 'How Glad I Am'. What a legend!
SO SO SO VERY CLASSYis she
That's it. I'm done. I had a talent. I didn't handle it well. I discovered it late. Too late. I admire how Nancy Wilson lives her life. Wow, I feel courage with these last times.
I Agree with Everthing Michael Eric Dyson said about Nancy. She said that she has Retired fom Performing. Most Peope retire from thier professions at some point she in her 70's. She has been out here since the Late 1950's. She desreves a retirement.She knows that she is loved around the world by her fans .People have a tendency to push older Entertainers to Keep going. But their is a time to stop. She has Contributed a lot......she iconic like Lena Horne & deserves some time off the stage.
