Jazz legend Nancy Wilson dead at 81

AFP News
Nancy Wilson won a number of Grammys

Nancy Wilson, a Grammy-winning singer who performed everything from jazz ballads to pop songs during a career spanning decades, has died at the age of 81. She died Thursday in California after a long illness, her manager Devra Hall Levy told US news outlets. Wilson's biggest hit was "(You Don't Know) How Glad I Am" in 1964. It earned her a Grammy award for best R&B recording. She also won a Grammy in 2005 and 2007. Wilson once said she knew from a very early age what she would do in life. "I have always just sung. I have never questioned what it is. I thank God for it and I just do it," she NPR radio in 1994. She said the musical influences in her life included Nat "King" Cole.
