James Victor "Jimmy" Scott (July 17, 1925 – June 12, 2014), also known as "Little" Jimmy Scott, was an American jazz vocalist famous for his unusually high contralto voice, which was due to Kallmann's syndrome, a very rare genetic condition.

The condition prevented him from reaching puberty, leaving him with a high, undeveloped voice. Read more on Last.fm
