Although Atkins had no experience in artist management or music, Vaughan wished to have a mixed professional and personal relationship like the one she had with T...

While commonly referred to as a "jazz singer," the improvisatory aspect of her art was focused primarily on ornamentation, phrasing and melodic variation.
