Just when you thought the days of the great jazz standards were gone, along comes Cres O'Neal. One of the greatest assets to Cres' vocals is her versatility -- she easily moves from one genre to another, from classical to rock. Cres has a sound that most assuredly can be compared to that of Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughn. --Steve Getz
