gapingvoid: "cartoons drawn on the back of business cards"

I'm curious Hugh - do you have any specific ideas about the conversation this cartoon is meant to start? I like it because, to me anyway, it's a very provocative statement considering how highly regarded Ella is in the mind of anyone who knows her music. Care to shed some light on it?

Cheers,

Mike.

Ella must be on the universal brain lately, in Chicago there is now a specific Ella Karaoke night!
