"Patti Shaffner, who was the first runner-up, shook up the entire theater with her jazz singing style and lyrics. One would only hope to see this type of talent at the Carlyle (or onstage in any venue). Shaffner sang and scatted in her second song, which really brought down the house. All were awed with her diverse artistry, not only in song, but in her grand, slick, professional, uninhibited and natural stage presence."
