  • Musicians:

  • With apologies to Joe Strummer, the lyrics quoted above were not matched with a Clash video. Instead, we honor Sheila Jordan, "recognized as one of the great singers in jazz although she never achieved the name recognition of a Billie Holiday or Sarah Vaughan," who died on 11 August 2025, at age 96.
