"I stole everything I ever heard, but mostly I stole from the horns." -- Ella Fitzgerald (b. 1917-04-25, d. 1996-06-15)

"The thing that influenced me most was the way Tommy played his trombone. It was my idea to make my voice work in the same way as a trombone or violin -- not sounding like them, but 'playing' the voice like those instrumentalists." -- Frank Sinatra (b. 1915-12-12, d. 1998-05-14)
